Cross-border drone strikes target logistics hubs and cause casualties

A wave of drone strikes and frontline fighting across Ukraine and Russia has caused casualties and damaged logistics infrastructure. Ukrainian drone attacks targeted Russian e-commerce facilities, igniting a Wildberries warehouse in Leningrad Oblast and hitting six Ozon logistics hubs over three days, sending Ozon's shares down nearly 30 percent.

Casualties mounted across multiple regions. In Moscow Oblast, drone strikes left five people dead and ten injured, while a separate drone crash on a beach near Gelendzhik killed seven people and injured around 40. In Kyiv, a Russian attack killed nine people and wounded 33.

On the front line, Russian forces achieved tactical gains near Artelne, while Ukrainian troops advanced toward Uspenivka. Meanwhile, Belarus announced the formation of a new air assault brigade near the Ukrainian border.
