Ukrainian drones strike Russian online retailer's facility

In St. Petersburg, Russia, Ukrainian drones conducted an attack on the logistics center of the online retailer Wildberries on Friday. The strike generated considerable smoke over the city and inflicted substantial material damage on the facility.

Wildberries, a major e-commerce player in Russia, has had its operations potentially impacted by the damage to its key logistics hub. This marks an escalation in targeting commercial infrastructure within Russia.

The attack on the Wildberries facility is part of a broader pattern of Ukrainian drone strikes within Russian territory. Ukraine has recently expanded the targets of its operations to include commercial and logistical assets inside Russia.

MDR Aktuell also reported on other developments during Friday, including drone attacks on Sumy, President Zelenskyy's warnings of further Russian missile strikes, and an upcoming meeting between the leaders of the United States and Ukraine in Washington.
