Ukraine targets Russian retailer Wildberries amid war efforts

A Russian e‑commerce firm comparable to Amazon has come under a series of heavy attacks, according to reports from Moscow. The company, which operates a nationwide online marketplace and logistics network, has experienced repeated disruptions to its delivery and payment systems over the past week. Ukrainian officials say the strikes are part of a broader campaign to pressure Russia by targeting civilian infrastructure and economic assets.

The attacks are being framed by Kyiv as a means to bring the realities of war into Russian society, complementing other military operations aimed at crippling the country’s supply chains. Analysts note that the disruption could affect millions of consumers and suppliers who rely on the platform, potentially tightening the economic strain on the Russian economy. The incident underscores the escalating use of cyber‑physical tactics in the conflict, as both sides seek to leverage non‑traditional targets to influence the war’s trajectory.
