Russian attack destroys Roshen warehouse in Chubynske near Kyiv

A warehouse belonging to confectionery corporation Roshen in Chubynske (Kyiv region), which handled storage and further supply of finished confectionery products, was destroyed in a massive Russian attack on the morning of Aug 27, the company’s press service has said.

A Russian attack on August 27 destroyed a Roshen warehouse in Chubynske, a city near Kyiv, the company's press service reported. The attack targeted a facility that stored and supplied finished confectionery products. Remarkably, no employees were injured as they had all taken refuge in shelters following the air raid alert. Emergency services are currently on-site to manage the aftermath and evaluate the damage.

This marks the second time Roshen's warehouses have been targeted since the invasion began; a warehouse in Yahotyn was destroyed in February. The latest assault has caused substantial material losses, including inventory, which may lead to temporary supply shortages for certain products. In response, the company is taking steps to redistribute stock and secure alternative warehouse locations to mitigate the potential disruptions and their effects on partners and consumers.
