Ukrainian drones struck two major logistics hubs of Russian e-commerce giant Wildberries in Krasnodar and Stavropol regions, as well as an oil depot in Armavir, causing massive fires and halting operations. At least 15 people were wounded and one worker killed, according to regional officials. The attacks targeted facilities that Ukraine says supply the Russian military with drone components and equipment.
The Strikes
Ukrainian drones struck two Wildberries logistics hubs in Krasnodar and Stavropol regions overnight, causing massive fires and halting operations. Wildberries CEO Tatyana Kim confirmed the attacks, reporting casualties and temporary suspension of commercial activity at both centers. In Stavropol, Governor Vladimir Vladimirov said a fire at a warehouse in Nevinnomyssk wounded 5 people, prompting a state of emergency. In Krasnodar, Governor Veniamin Kondratyev reported 10 wounded, 3 in serious condition, with helicopters deployed to contain the flames.
Oil Depot Hit
A separate drone strike hit an oil storage facility in Armavir, sparking a large fire and killing one worker, according to local authorities. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed the operations, stating the targets were strategic logistics centers supplying the Russian military with drone components, navigation equipment, and other military hardware. Russia's Defense Ministry claimed its air defense systems destroyed 242 Ukrainian drones across 16 regions overnight.
Financial Fallout
Estimated losses for Wildberries sellers from the attacks range from 100 to 150 billion rubles (about $2 billion), according to RBC. In response, Wildberries revised its seller contracts, announcing it will not accept legal or financial liability for losses caused by drone strikes, bombardment, or similar force majeure events.
What's Next
Regional authorities are continuing firefighting and damage assessment operations. It remains unclear whether Ukraine plans further strikes on Russian logistics infrastructure or whether Wildberries will face legal challenges from sellers over the revised liability terms.
