Syryskyi: Ukrainian strikes on Russia have forced the occupiers to cut their artillery shell usage by half.

The Commander-in-Chief of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Oleksandr Syrskyi, announced that Russian occupation forces have halved their artillery shell consumption rates. According to him, this is a result of Ukrainian strikes on Russian territory.

General Syrskiy discussed this in an interview for the program "TSN Week," which was aired during the telethon.

Syrskiy noted that the reduction in artillery ammunition consumption in the Russian army has been observed for "several months." Previously, this figure reached up to 40,000 shells per day, but now "it is significantly less," the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine added.

"We generally target military facilities that impact troop operations. Additionally, we also strike factories or plants that produce ammunition, missile components, or dual-use products. Alongside this, the enemy's oil refining industry also becomes a target for us," Syrskiy emphasized.

Recall that on the night of January 18, the military of the Main Intelligence Directorate struck an oil depot in the Tula region. They used drones of Ukrainian production for this purpose.

Before that, Ukrainian forces hit the "Liskinskaya" oil depot located in the Voronezh region and attacked an oil refinery in Engels in the Saratov region.
