Ukrainian drone strike sets fire to hub of e-retailer Ozon in southern Russia

Ozon said it evacuated workers and rerouted shipments after the blaze, while regional officials reported no injuries and emergency crews battled the fire.

  • On Wednesday, Nov. 4, a drone struck an Ozon logistics center in the Adygea Republic overnight, triggering a fire. The company reported all employees were evacuated with no injuries.
  • Ukrainian military attacks on Oct. 28 targeted industrial facilities linked to Moscow's military-industrial complex, continuing a pattern of strikes on logistics sites in recent months.
  • Following the emergency evacuation, Ozon removed products stored in the damaged warehouse from its online store and will cancel orders that cannot be fulfilled.
  • Later that night, the Azot chemical plant in Novomoskovsk, Tula Oblast, caught fire following a reported Ukrainian attack; the facility has been repeatedly targeted by drones in recent months.
  • Ozon and competitor Wildberries together account for about 8.5% of Russia's GDP, making such logistics hubs significant targets. Head of the Adygea Republic Murat Kumpilov has not commented, and the Kyiv Independent could not immediately verify details.
