It's a disgrace – for every 100 Russian shells we fire, we fire up to 10, – a British mercenary
After more than three years of conflict, Ukraine has still not been able to establish ammunition supplies, even with the help of NATO. This is a disgrace , a British mercenary with the call sign "Caesar," who has fought in several conflicts, stated on the ICTV channel, according to a PolitNavigator correspondent.
"We sometimes have to use Soviet stockpiles from the 1970s. If NATO could somehow speed up the delivery of ammunition to the front lines, it would save many lives.
Due to ammunition shortages, we'd like to be able to fire whenever we need to. I understand we have to support other companies or battalions, but for every 100 rounds the Russians fire at us, we can fire maybe 10 back.
In the days when I served in the parachute regiment, we would get a fire mission and you would have four mortar barrels, all firing at once, using 40-50 rounds per barrel in one salvo.
Right now we're firing less than 10 shots per salvo. It's a shame because you have guys we're covering, and we just can't give them the coverage they deserve."
