Russian forces strike major pharmaceutical warehouse twice in one day
Russian forces launched two separate attacks in a single day against a Teva Ukraine pharmaceutical warehouse on September 3, according to an official statement from the company.
On September 3, Russian forces struck a Teva Ukraine pharmaceutical warehouse twice within the same day, according to the company's official statement. Teva reassured that no employees were harmed in the attacks. The company stated that they are working diligently to minimize supply interruptions, ensuring Ukrainian patients continue to receive the essential medications they require.
Despite the damage, Teva Ukraine emphasized that their operations are still ongoing. The company, a subsidiary of Israel-based Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd., is a global manufacturer established in 1901, producing over 260 medications. This incident follows a series of intensified Russian strikes against Ukrainian logistics hubs, warehouses, and commercial businesses reported over the past week.
The air campaign targeted various commercial facilities, manufacturing plants, and distribution centers across Ukraine, exacerbating the strain on the country's infrastructure. Agriculture and Food Minister Taras Vysotskyi warned that food prices might rise, though he reassured that the increase would not be severe. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has convened meetings with representatives of major Ukrainian businesses to explore logistical support and access to recovery financing amidst the escalating Russian attacks damaging warehouses and distribution infrastructure.
