Cross-border strikes hit Russian e-commerce hubs and civilian targets

Cross-border strikes and logistics disruption escalated as Ukrainian drone attacks targeted major Russian e-commerce infrastructure while Russian bombardments hit Kyiv. Strikes on facilities belonging to Wildberries near Saint Petersburg and six Ozon logistics hubs, including a site in Makhachkala, caused shares of Ozon to drop by nearly 30 percent.

In Moscow Oblast, a drone hit a commercial warehouse, killing five people and injuring ten. In Krasnodar Krai, seven people were killed and roughly 40 injured when a drone crashed on a beach in Arkhipo-Osipovka. Meanwhile, Russian bombardments on Kyiv left nine people dead and 33 injured. On the front line, Russian forces achieved tactical gains near Artelne in Kharkiv Oblast, while Ukrainian troops made progress near Velyka Novosilka. Additionally, reports indicate Belarus is establishing a new air assault brigade near the Ukrainian border.
