Ukrainian drones hit Ozon warehouses in Russia’s Dagestan, Adygea, Krasnodar Krai, and Stavropol Krai

Ukrainian drones launched simultaneous attacks on four Ozon marketplace warehouses in Russia on August 24. The warehouses, located in Krasnodar, Adygea, Krasnodar Krai, and Stavropol Krai, were targeted one after another.

A Ukrainian UAV struck a logistics center near Krasnodar, igniting a major fire. The warehouse was closed down, with its stored items moved away from the marketplace and orders shipped from it canceled. Customers affected were refunded, and new deliveries were halted for security reasons. Ozon halted receiving shipments from the affected warehouse.

In Krasnodar Krai, two children were killed when drone debris fell on a children's center. Seven other children and two adults were injured. Ozon staff at warehouses in Adygeysk and Nevinnomyssk were evacuated due to the drone threat, though neither the facilities nor goods were damaged.

A drone attack on an Ozon warehouse in Dagestan also caused a fire, injuring several employees. This marked the first time Ukrainian drones hit an Ozon warehouse, occurring on August 22 and causing a fire at a facility near Chapayevsk in Samara Region. The following day, a Dagestan warehouse was targeted. Earlier, drones had struck multiple Wildberries marketplace warehouses, with the first Ozon warehouse attacked in Russia following a string of Wildberries attacks.
