“According to the UK, Russia is running low on short-range ballistic missiles,”

I’ve been hearing this claim for over half a year.

In 1942, the Allies were also trumpeting that the Nazis were running low on oil.

Two years later, the Allies were still announcing that!

You are implying that, when a combatant "runs low" on any vital resource, it means that everything will soon come crashing and squeaking to a halt.

It doesn't work that way!

Russia can still has plenty of old washing machines it can cannibalize for spare micro-chips to integrate into Soviet-era guided missiles. There are, after all, still lots of kindergarten and nursing homes that Russia hasn't rocket-bombed yet.

Regards,
