Ukrainian drones struck a warehouse operated by Russian e-commerce platform Wildberries in Volgograd overnight, according to reports. The attack destroyed the warehouse and comes amid a broader Ukrainian drone barrage on the city that also targeted a Lukoil refinery. No casualty figures are yet available.
Overnight, Ukrainian drones struck a Wildberries warehouse in Volgograd, destroying the facility. The attack was first reported at 02:44 Jerusalem time, when a brief report indicated Ukrainian forces were targeting the city. At 03:38, the destruction of the Wildberries warehouse was reported. A detailed report at 04:39 described the strike as part of a massive attack on Volgograd that also hit a Lukoil refinery, with UAVs still active over the city. Subsequent reports at 07:24 and 08:26 confirmed the warehouse strike.
The Wildberries warehouse is a key logistics hub for the Russian e-commerce giant, which has been repeatedly targeted by Ukrainian long-range drones in recent weeks, as The Zioneer has reported. The attack follows a similar pattern of strikes on Wildberries infrastructure across Russia, including in the Moscow region, Penza, and Sarapul.
No casualties have been reported. The extent of damage to the warehouse and the refinery remains unclear. The operation is consistent with Ukraine's ongoing campaign to disrupt Russian domestic logistics and economic infrastructure.
