Vladimir Putin's army is running out of viable tanks, missiles and fighter jets because the components they use are made in Ukraine, according to The Telegraph.

'The engines for all Russian helicopters, ships and cruise missiles and a substantial portion of fighter jet engines and ground-to-air missile and tank components are made in Ukrainian factories, which no longer supply Mr Putin’s forces.

Russian troops are understood to be running low on arms after five weeks of conflict and the heavy shelling of many Ukrainian cities.'

Should he not have thought of that (plus a thousand other things)?

Also, the supply of gas to Germany was supposed to have been switched of yesterday, but it seems to be still flowing okay. Switching off the gas would be shooting himself in the foot because it would seriously degrade the flow balance of the supply which should be continuous, - so I read. Does anyone understand more on that?

Yes but demanding payment in roubles on pain of switching everything off is a highly risky strategy that smacks of a desperation that isn’t there.
The desperation will come when the revenue dries up and the way things are going that could be quite soon
Maybe, but I think it just gives the game away. Desperation is suggesting one will go nuclear when one's forces are failing in their objectives. Desperation is threatening anything as one's economy goes to hell in a handbasket.
