Ukraine has escalated drone strikes on Wildberries’ logistics centers in Russia, aiming to disrupt supply chains and burden Moscow’s economy and military-industrial complex; multiple facilities have been hit with casualties reported, signaling Kyiv’s tactic to pressure Russia by targeting its key e-commerce infrastructure.
Ukraine conducted a drone attack on two Wildberries warehouses in Elektrostal and Kotovsk, killing eight and injuring over 80. Rebuilding costs are estimated at 22–36 billion rubles, but sellers’ unsold inventory could total 150–235 billion rubles (cautiously 150–170B). Wildberries’ contract now limits liability for force majeure, and insurance for sellers is limited, making full compensation unlikely; recovery depends on court outcomes. Kotovsk is set to reopen July 23, while Elektrostal’s status remains unclear.
Ukrainian drones hit Wildberries warehouses in Russia’s Krasnodar and Stavropol regions, killing one worker and injuring several as staff were evacuated. President Zelensky said the hubs help supply the Russian army with drone components and other gear. The strikes follow a previous Wildberries attack four days earlier and highlight disruptions to Russia’s logistics network and to hundreds of independent sellers relying on the platform.
Ukrainian drones attacked Wildberries logistics centres in Krasnodar and Nevinnomyssk, injuring eight workers and prompting evacuations; a separate strike at Armavir killed one worker. Kyiv says its long-range strikes hit Russian logistics facilities, drone components, and Black Sea vessels, while Moscow reports battlefield advances in Ukraine. Verification of some claims remains challenging amid the war.
Ukraine says it targeted Moscow-area logistics facilities, including Wildberries warehouses, with drone strikes, as it also hit an oil depot and four Black Sea vessels. Russia continued missile strikes on Ukrainian cities, with casualties reported in Odesa and other areas, amid reports of a possible shake-up in Ukraine’s military leadership.
Ukrainian drone strikes targeted two Wildberries warehouses in Russia—Electrostal (Moscow region) and Kotovsk (Tambov)—killing eight and injuring more than 70, causing up to 100 billion rubles ($1.3 billion) in damage and disrupting about 7% of the company’s logistics. Restoring the facilities could cost up to 35.8 billion rubles; Wildberries has offered partial compensation and discounts to affected sellers, while noting liability limits in its vendor agreement. Ukraine framed the strikes as retaliation and a psychological blow to Russia’s sense of normalcy, amid ongoing drone campaigns and reports of evacuation safety concerns (which Wildberries disputed).
Ukraine says long-range strikes hit two Wildberries logistics centres in Kotovsk (Tambov region) and Elektrostal (Moscow region), facilities used to supply sanctioned drone components and navigation equipment to Russia; seven workers were killed and 25 wounded at Kotovsk, with additional Ukrainian strikes hitting a Noginsk fuel depot, two tankers, two floating cranes and a tugboat in the Black and Azov seas, plus a Svetlyak-class patrol ship in Kerch and a railway bridge near Sabivka as part of ongoing attacks.
Ukrainian drones struck Russia’s fuel infrastructure and logistics, sparking a fire at a Noginsk oil depot in the Moscow region and two Wildberries warehouses in Kotovsk and Elektrostal, with seven workers killed in Kotovsk; blasts were also reported across occupied Crimea as part of a broader campaign against Russian fuel facilities.
