Ukraine targets Russian e-commerce hubs as casualties rise across regions

Cross-border drone strikes and front-line maneuvering have intensified across multiple sectors. Ukrainian drone attacks targeted major Russian e-commerce facilities, setting fire to a Wildberries warehouse near Saint Petersburg and striking six Ozon hubs over three days, which caused Ozon shares to fall by nearly 30 percent.

Casualties were reported in several Russian regions, including five dead in Moscow Oblast and seven killed when a drone crashed on a Krasnodar Krai beach. In Ukraine, a Russian attack on Kyiv left nine people dead and 33 injured.

Along the front lines, Russian forces achieved a tactical breakthrough near Artelne in Kharkiv Oblast, while Ukrainian troops advanced toward Uspenivka in southern Donetsk. Meanwhile, military authorities in Belarus initiated the formation of a new air assault brigade near the Ukrainian border.
