Amid escalating drone warfare between Kyiv and Moscow, both sides have targeted major e-commerce logistics centers and warehouses, resulting in fires and emergency evacuations. <\/p>\n
Drones play a significant role in the war in Ukraine, which Kyiv can produce without incurring high costs. According to the Atlantic Council think tank, Ukraine has regained momentum in fighting the Russian invasion, and its battlefield successes are made possible by innovative and affordable drones.<\/p>\n
Kyiv also possesses extensive experience in shooting them down. According to the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, between the night of August 2 and 3, Ukraine managed to destroy or neutralize 163 out of 181 Russian unmanned aerial vehicles.<\/p>\n
Ukrainian drones appeared over the logistics center of the Russian company Wildberries in the Vladimir Oblast, among other locations, according to reports from the Ukrainian channel Exilenova plus. Wildberries is an e-commerce platform similar to Amazon or Allegro. The attack led to a fire and necessitated an evacuation.<\/p>\n
Firefighters are working at the scene, and there are no preliminary reports of casualties, Wildberries reported on August 3.<\/p>\n
The surface area of the Wildberries logistics center is approximately 171,900 square meters, reported Ukrainska Pravda. According to information posted on social media, this facility plays a key role in the distribution of goods between the Moscow region and the central, northwestern, and northern parts of European Russia, journalists noted.<\/p>\n
On the night of August 2 to 3, Russia used drones to attack the logistics center of Ukraine’s largest e-commerce store, Rozetka, in the Kyiv Oblast, where no one was injured.<\/p>\n
This is the second attack on our warehouse within 24 hours, which is certainly not an accident but a deliberate strike, the company wrote on Telegram.<\/p>\n
Ukrainian forces have recently attacked Russian oil infrastructure, and the main base of strategic bombers has also become a target in order to limit Moscow’s ability to carry out long-range missile attacks on Ukraine, according to the US-based think tank Institute for the Study of War (ISW).<\/p>\n
Currently, the military continues its strike campaign against Russian military assets in the border areas of western Russia, while Moscow’s forces continue limited offensive operations in the northern Sumy Oblast.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
