In Bakhmut and Kupyansk directions, the occupiers use about 33,000-35,000 shells so they do not experience ammunition shortage.

"At the beginning of the full-scale aggression, they had much more shells. But only on our part of the front near Bakhmut and Kupyansk, they use an average of 33,000-35,000 shells per day," Serhiy Cherevaty, the spokesman for the Eastern Group of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, said during the United News telethon, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

He noted that the Armed Forces of Ukraine destroyed 13 enemy ammunition depots in Bakhmut direction over the past day.

In general, according to Cherevaty, the Russians are now concentrating on priority areas.

"It's not the enemy's ammunition shortage, it's probably a decrease in operational capabilities compared to those that were limitless at the beginning of the war. Now they are concentrating on priority directions and densely firing our positions with artillery," Cherevaty said.
