Russia is buying millions of artillery shells and rockets from North Korea, according to newly declassified American intelligence.
These disclosures come after reports indicated that the country is also buying drones from Iran.

A situation like this would have been unimaginable a few months ago since Russia is the second largest weapon exported in the world after the U.S.

Russia accounts for nearly 19% of worldwide weapons shipments. according to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI).
It is clear that Russia's invasion of Ukraine is taking a massive toll on its weapon stockpiles.
