How does a country with so many sanctions have the ability to do this?

  It helps to be the largest country on Earth (11 timezones), with a population > 140 million. They have all the natural resources and manpower they need to make ammunition till the end of time, if that's what they want to focus on.

    Yep. People like to focus on the most cutting edge tech like stealth fighters and AI drones because it's scary and sexy, but it's amazing how effective 100 year old tech of cheap mass produced rifle rounds and artillery shells can be at putting people in the ground, and will continue to do so for 100 more years.

      Not with much more accurate ammo counter-battering them. I also read that their guns are wearing out which limits their range, which means they have to move closer to the front, making them even more vulnerable.

    Not sure if still above 140 millions. Pandemic, emigration associated with war, war losses, reduced immigration, reduced births numbers could have some significant effects.
