Ukrainian drone attacks hit Russian commercial warehouses while frontline casualties and clashes rose in multiple regions.

Ukrainian drone strikes against Russian logistics infrastructure expanded to target additional commercial facilities, including warehouses owned by e-commerce major Ozon, whose shares tumbled by nearly 30 percent. Fires were reported at facilities across several regions, including Leningrad Oblast and Dagestan, following attacks on Wildberries sites.

Casualties rose across several locations. A drone strike on a warehouse in Moscow Oblast killed five people and injured ten. In Krasnodar Krai, a drone fell on a beach near Gelendzhik, killing seven people and injuring approximately 40. Concurrently, Russian strikes on Kyiv killed nine people and wounded 33.

Along the frontline, Russian forces achieved tactical progress near Artelne in Kharkiv Oblast, while Ukrainian troops advanced toward Uspenivka. Meanwhile, Belarus established a new air assault brigade near its border with Ukraine.
