Ukrainian drones hit warehouse of Russian online retailer Ozon in overnight strikes

Ozon said the strike evacuated more than 500 workers and halted operations at its Samara logistics hub, while Russia reported 457 drones downed overnight.

  • On Saturday, Ukrainian drones struck Ozon's logistics hub in Chapayevsk, Samara region, marking the first confirmed attack on Russia's second-largest online marketplace and forcing indefinite operational suspension.
  • This strike expands Ukraine's sustained campaign against Russia's economic infrastructure, following weeks of attacks on dozens of warehouses belonging to Wildberries, Russia's largest online retailer, to disrupt commercial logistics.
  • Ozon reported the attack forced evacuation of more than 500 employees and caused injuries; the company suspended operations indefinitely and halted seller deliveries to redirect shipments elsewhere.
  • During the same overnight wave, Ukrainian forces struck the Novokuybyshevsk oil refinery, causing a fire at the facility, which processes approximately 8.8 million tonnes of crude oil annually.
  • Russia's Defence Ministry claimed it downed 457 drones overnight as officials reported several injuries in the Samara region, illustrating the escalating scope of this ongoing economic infrastructure conflict.
