Ukrainian Drones Strike Ozon E-commerce Facilities in Ufa and Orenburg
Expanding its "Smart War" strike campaign against Russian economic infrastructure, Ukrainian long-range drones targeted logistics hubs belonging to Ozon, Russia's second-largest online retailer. Attacks were confirmed at facilities in the cities of Ufa and Orenburg. This follows a series of strikes that razed Wildberries warehouses earlier this month. Simultaneously, a car explosion in St. Petersburg resulted in the death of a Russian lieutenant colonel, identified as a key logistics coordinator for the Kharkiv front.
