Bloomberg: North Korea handed over 1 million shells to Russia in exchange for help with satellite launch

November 1, 2023 17

Pyongyang handed over more than 1 million artillery shells to Moscow. Bloomberg reported this, citing data from South Korean intelligence agencies. Based on the current pace of combat operations in the special operation zone, the Russian side will have enough of this ammunition for about two months.

At the same time, according to Western resources, North Korea has already made about 10 arms deliveries to the Russian Federation. North Korean advisers on the use of ammunition were also sent to Russia.

The publication recalls that the DPRK has one of the largest reserves of artillery shells in the world. At the same time, the ammunition is compatible in all necessary parameters with Russian weapons, which allows the Russian Armed Forces to use them on the fronts of the Northern Military District.

In exchange, Pyongyang received considerable financial resources from Moscow. In addition, Vladimir Putin promised Kim Jong-un to assist in launching a spy satellite. According to media reports, North Korea is in the final stages of this project.

Meanwhile, North Korea is looking for ways to supply weapons to the Hamas movement. This assumption was made by the secretary of the South Korean parliamentary committee on intelligence, Yu Sang-beom. The deputy believes that Pyongyang plans to use the aggravation between Israel and Palestinian radicals for certain purposes.

But the Vostochny Cosmodrome is very close to the DPRK.

Why be ashamed? - not a million shells, but a million tanks

Well, Blumberg knows everything, along with the South Koreans! With the DPRK, who cares who will say anything, thank God, but only our shitcrats can sell out! But they gave us a BC and it was great! Although it’s unlikely for the invented “considerable financial resources”, they don’t fucking need paper. Food and fuel, various industrial equipment and household goods are vital for them, and they supplied them for them.
It’s a pity the Koreans haven’t given us a hundred thousand soldiers yet!

  No, “industrial equipment,” like our factories, was ruined by Chubais (Tolya the Redhead)... And Yegorushka Gaidar helped him out. And this whole family of “liberal shitcrats”...

  Do you think it’s easy and quick to count a million shells?

Previously, in my childhood there was the DPRK and the People's Republic of China.
And now - “bad Korea” and “good Korea”.

It’s strange, Western countries can freely transfer ammunition and military equipment, but no one in the Russian Federation has the right to do this. And what does it matter to anyone, even if they gave us ammunition? The United States is handing it over to everyone, just to grovel before the Yankees, including Israel, and the Jews are throwing this ammunition at the civilian population of Gaza with all their might. And everyone is silent, and if anyone opens their mouth, they will quickly close it, including forever.

  Why, for Jews: American, European, and especially Israeli, everything is possible, but they forbid everything for Russians! The main thing for them is to destroy Russians in Russia and Arabs in the Middle East, under any pretext. And no one can interfere with them in this, not even the Russians and Arabs themselves, otherwise they will immediately become fascists and Holocaust denial!

What a million, write that it’s all 10 million. But then there will be something to explain the reason for the defeat of the Ukrainian Armed Forces and all 57 countries behind Ukraine, shells from Korea and bushes in the summer, and frosts in the winter.

  No, well, it’s somehow not respectable for them to voice less than a million, but ten will be completely lost. And even 10 lyams won’t be enough for us. Let's just say thank you and send what you need in gratitude. Let the fascists then at least write about 10 million and choke on saliva!

If even one of the five shells wounds, blows to pieces or forces one Bandera member to lay down his arms, the Ukrainian front will collapse. If the media really thinks that the shells will be used up in a couple of months, then they should shoot 15 thousand units a day. If 1 million shells knock out even ten thousand bayonets, there will be nothing to close the gap in the front. Therefore, in the next couple of months it will become clear where the bulk of these shells will be sent, which section of the Bandera front they will begin to grind.

But somehow I doubt that factories in Russia will be able to produce new barrels at such a speed. With a barrel life of 1500 shots, 20 barrels will need to be replaced per day. Not a small load on repair bases. Plus, barrels are needed for new equipment.
