Ukrainian FP-1 drones struck a major Wildberries logistics hub in Russia's Vladimir region. The facility is one of the company's largest distribution centers in central Russia, according to Fire Point and statements from Russian authorities.

What is known about the attack

According to Fire Point, Ukraine's Defense Forces hit the Wildberries logistics hub with FP-1 drones.

Wildberries and Vladimir region Governor Alexander Avdeyev also confirmed the attack. According to the governor, the strike caused damage and a fire at the facility, while employees were evacuated.

How large the facility was

The site is one of Wildberries' largest logistics complexes in central Russia. Once fully commissioned, its area was expected to reach approximately 175,000 square meters.

The warehouse was designed to store more than 120 million items.

Why such strikes are painful for Russia

Strikes on major logistics centers increase economic pressure on Russia.

Such attacks disrupt supply chains, raise infrastructure recovery costs, and affect the operations of one of Russia's largest e-commerce companies.

As previously reported, on the night of July 31, Ukrainian drones struck several regions across Russia.

FP-1 drones hit an oil refinery in Volgograd and a Wildberries logistics center, while explosions were also reported in Tatarstan and Dagestan.

Meanwhile, on the morning of August 3, drones struck Belgorod State Technological University, where automated drone control systems based on a Russian-made microprocessor were being developed.

The university also trained UAV operators under a Russian state program.
