Russian attacks on Nova Poshta
The company regularly comes under attack by Russian forces, including strikes on sorting terminals, which result in destruction, the loss of packages, and the deaths of employees.
In May 2024, a Russian suicide drone struck a cargo facility in Odesa, partially destroying the building. No staff members were injured in that incident.
In December 2025, during a nighttime attack on Odesa, debris from a Russian drone fell onto the grounds of the sorting terminal’s vehicle yard. The damage was estimated at 2.3 million hryvnias.
As early as January 2026, Russian forces launched a missile strike on a terminal in the suburbs of Kharkiv.
Russian attack resulted in the deaths of civilian workers—2 company employees and 2 drivers from partner companies.
