North Korea supplies Russia with up to 40 percent of all ammunition that the country uses in its warfare against Ukraine, according to the head of Ukraine's military intelligence service.
In addition to ammunition, North Korea also sends ballistic missiles and artillery systems, among other things, says intelligence chief Kyrylo Budanov to Bloomberg.
They are good weapons, he says and adds that North Korea has enormous stocks and that production is ongoing around the clock.
Russia, in turn, supplies the dictatorship on the Korean peninsula with money and technology.
North Korea has become one of Russia's closest allies and last June they signed a military agreement that, among other things, contains a clause on mutual defense.
As recently as Thursday, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov visited Pyongyang, at the invitation of the North Korean Foreign Ministry.
