Ukrainian drone strikes target Russian logistics hubs as cross-border casualties rise

Ukrainian drone strikes have targeted Russian e-commerce distribution centers, causing fires at facilities belonging to Wildberries and Ozon in the Leningrad region, Moscow Oblast, and Dagestan. Ozon shares fell by nearly 30 percent following operational suspensions across multiple logistics hubs.

Casualties were reported across several regions. Regional authorities confirmed five deaths and ten injuries from warehouse strikes in Moscow Oblast, while a drone crash on a beach in Krasnodar Krai left seven people dead and dozens injured. Meanwhile, a Russian strike on Kyiv resulted in nine fatalities and 33 injuries.

On the battlefield, Russian troops made tactical advances near Kharkiv, whereas Ukrainian forces progressed in the south. Belarus also announced a new air assault brigade near its Ukrainian border.
