This was reported by the Communications Department of the Ukrainian Ground Forces in response to a request from LIGA.net.It is noted that this figure has remained unchanged since the start of 2025. However, it is about 1.6 times less than it was nearly a year ago.In August 2024, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oleksandr Syrskyi stated that the occupying Russian forces were using over 44,000 artillery shells per day. At that time, the ratio between Ukraine and Russia was 1:3.As of July 2025, the ratio is now 1:1.8, but still in favor of the Russian army, according to the response to journalists' inquiry.The command emphasized that these figures may fluctuate depending on the operational situation and the intensity of Russian offensive actions.In particular, there is higher density of shelling in the Pokrovsk, Dobropillia, and Toretsk directions, and lower in the Sumy, Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions.Earlier this month, South Korean intelligence reported that North Korea had likely transferred over 12 million 152-mm caliber shells to Russia.
