EU Fails to Deliver Promised Artillery Shells to Ukraine

The European Union’s pledge to provide 1 million artillery shells to Ukraine has fallen short, with only half delivered and a deadline extension to the end of 2024. Journalists found that EU manufacturers may only produce half of their claimed capacity. This discrepancy raises concerns as Russia continues to supply ammunition to the front at a higher rate. The European Commission defends their assessment, citing current investments in the industry.
