Ukrainian drone strikes hit Russian commercial hubs as civilian casualties rise

Ukrainian drone attacks continued to target major Russian logistics networks and border regions, striking facilities belonging to e-commerce giant Ozon in six locations over three days, including a distribution center in Dagestan. The attacks prompted a nearly 30 percent decline in Ozon’s stock value. A separate strike ignited a fire at a Wildberries warehouse in Leningrad Oblast, leaving one person injured.

Meanwhile, casualties were reported across several regions following aerial attacks and shelling. In Moscow Oblast, drone strikes caused five deaths and ten injuries at a commercial site. A drone crash on a beach near Gelendzhik killed seven people and injured dozens. Additionally, Russian strikes on Kyiv resulted in nine fatalities and 33 injuries. On the front line, Russian troops made tactical gains near Artelne in Kharkiv Oblast, while Ukrainian forces advanced toward Velyka Novosilka.
