Ukrainian Drones Strike Wildberries Warehouses Again

Ukrainian drones have again hit warehouses belonging to Russia's biggest online retailer, Wildberries, injuring 10 people, according to Russian media and the region's governor.

Logistics hubs in Krasnodar and Stavropol were struck during overnight attacks, forcing workers to be evacuated, the company's owner stated.

This marks the second time in four days that Ukraine has attacked the firm's facilities; warehouses in Tambov and Elektrostal were hit on Saturday, resulting in eight deaths and 62 injuries. Kyiv has claimed that the warehouses have been used to supply components for manufacturing Russian drones and navigation equipment.

Serhii Kuzan, chairman of the Ukrainian Security and Cooperation Centre, previously told BBC that Wildberries' website had been used by Russian volunteers to purchase military equipment. He added that the primary rationale for striking Wildberries' warehouses is to disrupt Russian logistics and the supply of dual-use goods, critical electronics, and sanctioned items to the Russian army and arms manufacturers.
