Ukrainian strikes hit Russian logistics hubs as civilian casualties mount

Cross-border strikes and regional military developments have intensified across Ukraine and Russia. Ukrainian drone attacks targeted logistics infrastructure belonging to major Russian e-commerce operators, striking a Wildberries warehouse in Leningrad Oblast and multiple facilities owned by Ozon, including a site in Makhachkala, Dagestan. Ozon's shares fell by nearly 30% following the incidents.

In Russia, local officials reported civilian casualties from drone impacts, including five deaths in Moscow Oblast and seven fatalities after a drone crashed on a beach in Krasnodar Krai. Ukrainian authorities reported nine deaths from a Russian strike on Kyiv. Meanwhile, Russian forces made tactical gains near Kharkiv and in the Donetsk region, while Belarus began forming a new air assault brigade near the Ukrainian border.
