Ukraine has launched one of its biggest attacks on Russia, again targeting the "Russian Amazon"

Ukrajina je ponoči izvedla enega največjih napadov z brezpilotnimi letalniki na Rusijo od začetka leta, pri čemer so ruske oblasti po navedbah ubili najmanj šest ljudi. Rusija je nadaljevala z raketnimi napadi na Ukrajino, medtem ko so ukrajinske sile ponoči sestrelile več kot 800 dronov. Napad je bil usmerjen tudi proti širšemu območju Moskve, kjer so zračne obrambne sile in enote za elektronsko bojevanje onesposobili 187 dronov. Med tarčami je bilo tudi skladišče podjetja Wildberries, ki ga pogosto opisujejo kot ruski Amazon. V objektu je izbruhnil požar, vendar ni bilo poškodovanega nikogar. Ukrajina trdi, da je napadel sedem od desetih največjih logističnih centrov podjetja, ki sodeluje pri oskrbi ruske vojske. Rusija je v zadnjem tednu izstrelila več kot 1.550 brezpilotnih letalnikov, skoraj 1.560 vodenih letalskih bomb in 62 raket.

Ukraine launched a new drone attack targeting a logistics hub belonging to Russia's popular online retailer Wildberries, located in Yekaterinburg, approximately 1,400 kilometers east of Moscow. According to reports from local authorities and the company itself, the attack triggered a fire at the facility. All employees were evacuated safely, and while the blaze was contained, most of the inventory remained undamaged. Regional governor Denis Pasler stated that Russian forces shot down eight drones over the region during the night, with three crashing onto the roof of the logistics center. No injuries were reported from the crashes. The attack marks the latest in a series of strikes against Wildberries' facilities since mid-July, when Ukraine began targeting around 20 warehouses of the e-commerce giant. Kyiv has accused Wildberries of supplying components for drones and aiding the Russian military in its aggression against Ukraine. The company employs thousands of workers and has been dubbed the "Russian Amazon." In addition to the attack on the Yekaterinburg facility, Ukrainian drones struck another Wildberries warehouse in the Vladimir region, about 180 kilometers east of Moscow. Local officials confirmed that a fire broke out after the attack, resulting in one person being injured. The regional governor, Alexander Avdeyev, noted that the strike was carried out using unmanned aerial vehicles. He added that damage occurred at the site, and a younger man sustained injuries. The conflict has escalated further with both sides reporting casualties. In Moscow’s region, five people died and six were injured following a drone attack on an industrial zone in the town of Chekhov near Moscow. Governor Andrey Vorobyov described multiple fires breaking out after the strike. Meanwhile, in Leningrad Oblast, a drone attack ignited a fire at the Wildberries logistics center in Krasny Bor. Governor Alexander Drozdetsky stated that 17 drones were shot down over the region, causing damage at the company's location, with one employee sustaining injuries. In Ukraine, four civilians have reportedly died due to Russian attacks. In the Sumy region, military administration head Oleg Grigoryev announced that two children and an elderly woman lost their lives, with six water bombs hitting civilian infrastructure in the city. In the southern port city of Mykolaiv, an elderly woman was killed in an attack, according to local authorities. Ukraine has intensified its attacks on Russian territory, including targets deep within Russia. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasized the need to bring the war back into Russia. His statements followed reports that Russia had launched missile attacks on Kyiv and surrounding areas, killing at least four people and injuring many others. The Russian defense ministry claimed to have hit key Ukrainian arms manufacturer Fire Point, destroying fuel storage that supplied the Ukrainian military, although they did not provide evidence for these claims. Meanwhile, Ukraine conducted a large-scale drone attack on Russian oil refineries in the south and southeast of the country. In Samara Oblast, Governor Vyacheslav Fedorishchev reported that an industrial object was attacked overnight, though he did not specify the target. Independent Ukrainian and Russian media indicated that a refinery in Sizran caught fire. The refinery, owned by state-owned oil company Rosneft, has previously been targeted by Ukrainian attacks. Another refinery in Ilsk, in the Krasnodar region, also suffered damage, with five people injured in the incident. According to Russian air defense claims, they intercepted 397 Ukrainian drones over several Russian regions, the Sea of Azov, and the Crimean Peninsula, which Russia annexed in 2014. The escalating conflict continues to see both sides targeting each other's critical infrastructure, leading to increasing civilian casualties and destruction.

Ukraine with drones again over the warehouse of the "Russian Amazon"

Ukraina je z droni napadla še eno skladišče ruskega spletnega trgovca Wildberries v Jekaterinburgu, kar je povzročilo požar v logističnem centru. Podjetje je poročalo, da so vse zaposlene pravočasno evakuirali, medtem ko so gasilci uradno reagirali. Ruska vojska je sestrelila osem brezpilotnih letalnikov, trije so strmoglavili na streho, a ni bilo poškodb mednarodnih oseb. Od sredine julija je Ukrajina napadla 20 skladišč Wildberries, ki se imenuje 'ruski Amazon', in obtožuje podjetje, da deli z rusko vojsko v okviru svoje dejavnosti.

Ukraine has again attacked the warehouse of Russian trader Wildberries, this time 900 miles east of Moscow.

Ukrajina je z brezpilotnimi letalniki ponoči napadla logistični center ruskega spletnega trgovca Wildberries v Jekaterinburgu, približno 1400 km vzhodno od Moskve. Podjetje je sporočilo, da je zaradi napada izbruhnil požar, vendar so vse zaposlene premestile na varno. Večina blaga ni bila poškodovana. Ruska vojska je ponoči nad oblastijo sestrelila osem brezpilotnih letalnikov, medtem ko so trije strmoglavili na streho centra, brez poškodb.
