Quote: “One of the priority tasks of our defence operation is the destruction of enemy artillery. Over the course of 2024 alone, 13,000 artillery systems were destroyed. This exceeds the total for the two previous years of the full-scale invasion combined.”
Details: The overall losses of Russian forces in artillery systems have reached nearly 23,000 pieces. Ukrainian forces have also destroyed 1,269 multiple-launch rocket systems (MLRS) belonging to the Russians.
Quote: “The effective counter-battery operations by Ukrainian artillery, along with the extensive deployment of drone units, have effectively nullified the initial artillery dominance of the Russian invaders on the battlefield.”

Another reason for this success is that Western artillery fires further and more accurately than the roach artillery can. Over time, this whittled down even the gigantic stockpile of Soviet-era artillery systems that used to live in mafia land. Now, they are twisted pieces of scrap metal in Ukraine.
Once the supply of meat puppets dwindles to nothing, mafia land are screwed.
Will they run out of meat first, or money?
