Ukraine hits 2 more Wildberries warehouses after 8 workers killed

What's new: Ozon shares fell 4%, and an e-commerce lobby group asked Moscow for a six-month tax deferral for affected businesses.

Ukraine struck two more Wildberries warehouses in southern Russia, extending a drone campaign against the country’s biggest online retailer days after earlier attacks killed eight workers and disrupted operations. Wildberries chief Tatyana Kim said the latest strikes hit facilities in Krasnodar and Nevinnomyssk and injured several people. Krasnodar Governor Veniamin Kondratiev said 10 people were wounded in an attack on a storage complex. President Volodymyr Zelenskiy described the targets as logistics hubs involved in supplying Russian forces with drone components and other equipment, while the Kremlin denied Wildberries handles military supplies. The attacks have raised concerns about broader fallout for Russia’s consumer economy and its fast-growing e-commerce sector.
