"60% of the shells that the Russian military poured into Kharkiv are from North Korea."

It has been argued that more than half of the shells Russia uses for shelling toward the high-altitude area in northeastern Ukraine are made by North Korea.

Ukrainian military spokesman Colonel Yeushcheni Romanou said 60% of the 122mm and 152mm shells Russia fired into the northeastern Kharkiv space in the last two days were from North Korea.

Colonel Romanou claimed that the North Korean shells were not targeted or detonated in time because of their low quality.

Apart from sending troops to Russia, North Korea is known to provide various weapons such as missiles and artillery shells.
