Ukrainian drones strike Wildberries e‑commerce hub in Russia

Ukrainian drones have struck the Russian online‑shopping platform Wild Berries for the second time this month, according to a statement from the company’s Moscow office. The attack, which occurred early on Tuesday, damaged a warehouse in the city of Orenburg but reportedly caused no injuries. Wild Berries said the drones were intercepted by local air‑defence units before they could reach the facility.

The company added that it is reviewing its security protocols and has temporarily suspended deliveries from the affected region. This incident follows a similar drone strike on the same platform last week, underscoring the growing risk to commercial infrastructure in eastern Russia amid the ongoing conflict. Wild Berries has urged customers to check the status of their orders on its website and to contact customer service for any affected shipments.

Wild Berries’ repeated targeting highlights the broader pattern of drone attacks on Russian logistics and retail hubs, a trend that authorities say is part of a wider strategy to disrupt supply chains. The company remains operational across most of Russia, but it has warned that disruptions could persist until the security situation stabilises.
