Ukrainian drone strikes target Russian e-commerce hubs as casualties rise

Ukrainian drone strikes against Russian commercial infrastructure have hit major e-commerce platforms, including Wildberries and Ozon. The targeted attacks expanded to six Ozon logistics hubs in three days, including facilities in Dagestan and Leningrad Oblast, causing the company’s stock to plummet by nearly 30 percent.

Casualties were reported across several regions. In Moscow Oblast, a warehouse drone strike killed five people and injured ten. A separate incident in Krasnodar Krai left seven dead and roughly 40 wounded after a drone crashed onto a beach near Gelendzhik. Meanwhile, Russian strikes on Kyiv killed nine people and injured 33.

On the front lines, Russian forces achieved tactical gains near Artelne in Kharkiv Oblast, while Ukrainian units advanced near Uspenivka. Additionally, Belarus announced the formation of a new air assault brigade near its border with Ukraine.
