The gas supply from Russia to Europe is again clouded by a serious crisis. Now Russia has said that only one turbine engine, which plays a key role in gas evacuation, is functioning, so gas supply through the Nord Stream One pipeline could be disrupted in the coming days. The European Union (EU) has said that Russia is using gas as an economic weapon.

Russia's latest statement on gas supplies has raised concerns for European countries, as they are not getting even the gas they need daily during the days of gas storage for cold weather. European countries have not been getting gas regularly since the last week of June. 

Russia is believed to be disrupting gas supplies in response to economic sanctions imposed by Europe on Russia in response to Ukraine's war. Due to the lack of gas, Europe is in danger of a severe economic recession. 

It is noteworthy that for the past several weeks, only 20 percent of the gas capacity from the Nord Stream One pipeline is being supplied to Europe through Germany. This supply is not even available for three days of the current week. Meanwhile, Russia has warned of further disruption in supplies. Russia's warning has increased the concern of European countries. It should be known that in Europe electricity is produced from gas and gas is also used as a fuel in industry. 

Meanwhile, news agency ANI has said in its report that the Ukrainian army is using Pakistan-made weapons to do two-hands against Russia. According to a post posted on Twitter, Ukrainian army personnel are using 122 mm HE artillery projectiles. It is manufactured in Pakistani Ordnance Factories (POF). Ukraine Weapons Trekker tweeted that the Ukrainian military's huge artillery needs are being met from some unconventional sources.
