  • Previously targeted on June 20, 2026, the facility in the Ural Federal District serves as a vital supplier of gasoline and diesel fuel for western Siberia and the Urals region.
  • Since July 18, Ukrainian drones have targeted more than 10 logistics hubs and warehouses in Russia, with many strikes hitting Wildberries facilities, known as "Russia's Amazon," causing billions in losses.
  • Between Friday evening and Saturday morning, the Russian Defense Ministry reported intercepting 328 Ukrainian unmanned aerial vehicles over 22 regions, including the Crimean peninsula and the Sea of Azov.
  • Expanding long-range capabilities, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Ukraine aims to push drone ranges to between 5,000 and 10,000 km by 2027, reflecting Kyiv's commitment to striking infrastructure deep within Russian territory.
