Ukrainian drone strikes hit Russian e-commerce sites and border regions as casualties mount

Ukrainian drone attacks have increasingly targeted Russian logistics and commercial infrastructure, inflicting fresh casualties and severe operational disruption. Facilities belonging to e-commerce giant Ozon, including a major distribution hub in Makhachkala, Dagestan, were struck, driving company shares down nearly 30 percent. A separate drone strike set fire to a Wildberries warehouse in Krasny Bor, Leningrad Oblast.

The aerial campaign also resulted in significant civilian loss of life inside Russia. In Moscow Oblast, drone strikes killed five people and injured ten, damaging local warehouse facilities. Additionally, seven people, including three children, died when a drone crashed on a crowded beach in Krasnodar Krai. Meanwhile, heavy fighting persists along the front lines, following earlier Russian missile strikes on Kyiv that left nine dead, alongside tactical movements in Kharkiv Oblast and southern Donetsk.
