Ukrainian drone strikes have targeted major Russian e-commerce logistics hubs and regional sites, while Russian attacks and frontline clashes continued across multiple sectors. Drone strikes ignited fires at Wildberries and Ozon warehouses in Leningrad Oblast, Moscow Oblast, and Dagestan, severely impacting supply networks. In Moscow Oblast, strikes near a warehouse killed five people and injured ten. A separate drone crash on a beach in Krasnodar Krai killed seven people, including three children, and injured around 40 others.
