Ukraine continues to systematically strike logistics facilities deep inside Russia. A Wildberries warehouse in Russia's Samara region has come under attack, according to Ukrainian defense company Fire Point.
According to the company, Ukrainian FP-1 drones struck a Wildberries logistics hub in the settlement of Novosemeykino in the Samara region.
The logistics center is an important hub for storing, sorting and distributing goods, helping ensure the uninterrupted operation of major logistics networks.

The Saratov oil refinery was also targeted. It is one of Russia's key oil-processing facilities, with an annual capacity of about 7 million tons of crude oil.
The refinery produces gasoline, diesel fuel, jet fuel and other petroleum products that play an important role in supplying fuel to the region.

Fire Point said that systematic strikes on oil-refining and logistics infrastructure increase economic pressure on Russia, disrupt supply chains and force Moscow to devote more resources to restoring and protecting critical facilities.
Attacks on Wildberries warehouses have already affected the marketplace's operations. According to The Moscow Times, prices for some goods in Russia have risen by 10-30% following the strikes, while delivery times have increased severalfold.
Sellers have also reported shortages of goods and insufficient compensation for lost products.
Amid the strikes on Wildberries warehouses, the marketplace has also begun looking for new logistics facilities in Kazakhstan, seeking to move part of its infrastructure out of the reach of drone attacks.
