300,000 Russians died for their “freedom”.

That many died from Ukrainian propaganda? And to think that the Russians had only shovels to fight with.

Russia has recently limited its use of precision rocket systems throughout its unprovoked invasion of Ukraine, instead resorting to increasingly imprecise rockets, according to the United Kingdom's Ministry of Defense.

Why it matters: Russia rationing its use of such weapons could suggest that its stockpile is dwindling and that Western sanctions may have hamstrung its ability to produce more.

If Russia’s use of the Raduga Kh-32 (RS-AS-4A Kitchen mod.) anti-ship missile in a secondary mode as a land-attack weapon in its war on Ukraine suggested Moscow’s inventory of dedicated land-attack cruise missiles (LACMs) was dwindling, this was only reinforced days later when even older model Raduga Kh-22s (RS-AS-4 Kitchen) were employed. Both lack the accuracy of Moscow’s dedicated LACMs.
