Drone Hits High-Rise Apartment Building in Yekaterinburg as Ukraine Targets Wildberries Hub

According to the Kyiv Independent, Ukrainian forces targeted a Wildberries warehouse in Yekaterinburg, a site more than 1,600 kilometers from the front line. The same outlet placed the strike within a broader pattern of attacks on Russian commercial infrastructure. Subsequent coverage from the Moscow Times confirmed that a drone struck a high‑rise apartment building in Yekaterinburg, linking the impact directly to the Wildberries hub.

Defense Express posted video of FP‑1 drones hitting the Kstovo oil refinery and a Wildberries hub in the Tambov region, while Yahoo News UK noted a repeat hit on a Wildberries depot. In Belgorod, Ukrainian Pravda reported fires at a thermal power plant and Ozon warehouses; Reuters and the Moscow Times said a missile attack killed two people at the Ozon facilities. The differing descriptions of weaponry—drone versus missile—illustrate varying accounts of the Yekaterinburg incident.

Simultaneously, attacks in Belgorod have resulted in confirmed casualties and fires at commercial sites. Authorities continue to assess damage across the affected regions.
