Ukraine hits Wildberries warehouse far from frontline
The regional governor said three drones crashed into the roof of the warehouse in Yekaterinburg without causing any casualties.
MOSCOW: Ukrainian drones have struck the facilities of Russia's premier online retailer, Wildberries, approximately a dozen times since mid-July, according to AFP reports. The most recent attack targeted a warehouse in Yekaterinburg, a city situated hundreds of miles from the frontline, on Friday. Wildberries announced that firefighters had been deployed to the logistics center, where a fire ensued following the attack.
The retailer's statement affirmed that all personnel had been safely evacuated. Regional Governor Denis Pasler disclosed that three drones had breached the roof of the warehouse early on Friday, resulting in no casualties despite the attack. Since mid-July, Ukraine has launched around 20 assaults on Wildberries' sites, which are frequently characterized as Russia's Amazon.
Amid the four-year-long Russia-Ukraine conflict, diplomacy remains stagnant, and both nations are intensifying their long-range strikes, resulting in an increasing number of civilian casualties.
