Original Note:
Israel claimed a shortage of munitions based on high usage, but there is no evidence that the US has "depleted its stockpiles". Though stockpile numbers are unknown, the US is currently producing 30K 155mm rounds per month, and CONUS artillery training continues unabated. https://www.army.mil/article/273152/us_army_and_industry_partners_mobilize_to_boost_us_artillery_production#:~:text=At%20present%2C%20the%20U.S.%20Army,to%20further%20expand%20production%20capacity. https://www.hawaiinewsnow.com/2024/02/23/live-fire-artillery-training-be-held-next-tuesday-schofield-barracks/
