The British Ministry of Defense reported this on Twitter, citing intelligence data, according to Ukrinform.
The report notes that on April 27 this year, Russian military-related social media stated that the Deputy Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation, Colonel General Mikhail Mizintsev, had been dismissed. Mizintsev was responsible for military logistics and had been in office for only eight months.
Mizintsev's release was not immediately confirmed, but speculation about his future suggests that logistical issues remain at the center of Russia's military campaign in Ukraine.
According to British intelligence, Russia does not have enough ammunition to succeed in its offensive. The lack of ammunition is causing internal disagreements, especially between the Russian Ministry of Defense and the Wagner Air Force.

“Russia continues to give the highest priority to mobilising its defence industry, but it is still failing to meet wartime demands. While Russia's political leaders persist in demanding success on the battlefield, Russia's logistics professionals are stuck in the middle” - the intelligence notes.
As Ukrinform reported earlier, in a previous report, British intelligence said that the defensive structures that Russia is building on its own and temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine indicate deep concern that the Ukrainian Armed Forces could make a major breakthrough.
