The head of the Defense Intelligence added that North Korea is able to provide russia with artillery ammunition.

"There are many people at enterprises there. In the DPRK, sadly, they can boast of such things. There are enough people and enterprises. The weapons there are not modern, but the production volumes are serious," said Budanov.
