Ukrainian drones hit warehouse of Russian online retailer Ozon in overnight strikes

On Saturday night, Ukrainian drones targeted an industrial facility and a warehouse belonging to Russia's major online retailer, Ozon, according to Governor Vyacheslav Fedorishchev of Russia's Samara region. The governor's announcement, made via Telegram, reported that multiple individuals sustained injuries during the strikes. Fedorishchev did not disclose the specific industrial site that was targeted, but it noted that the region is a frequent target of Ukrainian attacks, particularly oil refineries.

Ozon, Russia's second-largest online retailer, reported that its Samara region logistics center in Chapayevsk was temporarily halted following the attack, which resulted in injuries. This marks the first time Ozon has been hit in a series of strikes against its larger competitor, Wildberries, which Ukraine accuses as part of a broader economic campaign against Russia's military efforts. The Russian Defence Ministry reported that 457 Ukrainian drones were shot down overnight.
