Ukrainian drone strikes hit Russian e-commerce facilities across multiple regions

Ukrainian drone strikes targeted logistics facilities belonging to Russian e-commerce platform Wildberries across multiple regions overnight into Tuesday, leaving six people dead and nine injured. Five of the fatalities occurred in Moscow Oblast, while another strike sparked a major fire at a warehouse in the St. Petersburg region, forcing evacuations. Ukrainian forces have targeted approximately 20 Wildberries locations since mid-July, alleging the company distributes military hardware and drones.

Separately, news outlets verified footage of a Monday drone attack on a crowded beach in the resort city of Gelendzhik, which Russian officials said killed seven people. Moscow subsequently claimed its forces struck seven Ukrainian cargo vessels in response.
