  "account": "At least five individuals lost their lives and ten more sustained injuries following a Ukrainian drone strike on a warehouse near Moscow on Tuesday night, according to the governor of the Moscow region. The location targeted remains undisclosed. Ukraine has been conducting strikes on Wildberries-operated facilities in recent weeks, which have been dubbed the \"Russian Amazon\" by Kyiv, who accuse the latter of supplying the Russian military. Wildberries warehouses were also targeted in St Petersburg and Tver regions overnight. In response, Russia launched attacks on Ukrainian territory, resulting in at least four deaths and multiple injuries. The Russian defense ministry claimed to have intercepted and destroyed 320 drones during the night. Moscow region governor Andrei Vorobyov informed via Telegram that an industrial site in Novoselki, Chekhov, approximately 43 miles south of the Kremlin, was struck, resulting in a warehouse fire. He reported that seven of the ten injured were in moderate condition, with one experiencing serious injuries. Ukrainian media suggested the Moscow site was connected to Wildberries, although the company has not made a public statement. Meanwhile, an 89-year-old woman was killed and seven individuals, including two girls aged two and 12, were injured in a Russian strike on the southern port city of Mykolaiv. Additionally, a woman and two girls aged five and 10 were killed in an attack on a residential area in Sumy, while two more people were injured. Russian strikes also resulted in two casualties in Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi, and a food warehouse was set ablaze in Dnipro, as reported by the State Emergency Service.",
