DPRK hands over old Soviet howitzers to russia - media

Russia received from the DPRK old Soviet military equipment, with which the invaders plan to shell the Ukrainian army.

BILD military columnist Julian Ropcke reports this.

The analyst refers to a video shot at the Shimanovskaya station of the Amur Region of russia. In this video, Soviet D-30 122 mm howitzers are carried on open platforms from east to west. He suggested that these are howitzers that are carried from North Korea.

D-30 howitzers were produced in the USSR in the early 1960s. Subsequently, more modern D-30A howitzers were created on their basis, which are still used in the russian army. The published video features old versions.

He also said that there are at least four million artillery shells in the warehouses of the russian army.
