This is worth confirming. Russian ammo use is already far higher than anything they could have planned for and a large dump in Luhansk should be one of their most important ones for the fighting in the east. If the Ukrainians can start targeting Russian dumps it will matter.

@thetimes has a piece on ammunition shortages that are starting to bite for the Ukrainians too. Not surprising. To give you an idea of the use rate of ammo in war being far higher than anyone expected, the Ukrainians are saying that they are using a weeks supply in 20 hour 
So both sides will be feeling the crunch, and whoever has the better functioning supply/logistics system will have a significant edge. So far three things seem to be favoring the Ukrainians. 1) the have generally lighter weapons which makes resupply somewhat less complex
2) they have access to captured Russian equipment and supplies. 3) the Ukrainian rail system seemed to be working pretty well, atc, a few days ago. Of course, this could all change.
Interesting priority list, no hand held anti-tank weapons and no small arms and ammo. More big ticket, advanced systems. Maybe the supply system for the smaller stuff isn’t too pressing for the Ukrainians.

Will try to keep an eye out for news on supply issues today. If other people see some, please link.
