  "account": "On August 10-11, Ukraine's Cyber Corps targeted the digital infrastructure of Russian online retailer Wildberries as part of a Defense Intelligence operation, according to the agency. Despite the company's robust security measures, the attack led to significant disruptions, impacting the main remote customer service channel, partially destabilizing payment infrastructure, and straining contact centers. Users complained extensively about the inability to make payments due to the cyber operation. Ukraine's intelligence claimed the operation amplified the effects of previous strikes on Wildberries warehouses, resulting in substantial losses for the company. The company, crucial to Russian logistics and financing the war against Ukraine, has been targeted frequently. Ukrainian drones have attacked at least 20 of the company's logistics centers, with some facilities completely destroyed by fires, causing the marketplace to lose approximately 1.18 million square meters of warehouse space. The attacks have already adversely affected the company and the Russian economy, leading to a 25% drop in Wildberries' turnover. Reuters, citing a Kremlin source, also reported that Russia might face a wave of bankruptcies among entrepreneurs who sold goods through the marketplace and lost their products in the attacks on logistics centers.",
