Ukrainian drones struck three warehouses across Russia overnight, including two run by online retailer Wildberries, killing at least five people, local officials said on Tuesday.
Wildberries, whose facilities have faced nearly daily attacks over the past two weeks, said one of its warehouses in the northwestern Leningrad region caught fire after a drone strike. The company said there were no injuries.
In the Tver region, located northwest of Moscow, another Wildberries facility was damaged by drones, Vitaly Korolyov, the acting regional governor, said. No one was hurt in that attack as well.
But in the Moscow region, home to around 22 million people, a drone attack on a warehouse in the city of Chekhov killed five people, Governor Andrei Vorobyov said. Without identifying the owner of the warehouse, Vorobyov said another 10 people were injured.
Russia's Defense Ministry said it intercepted 320 Ukrainian drones across Russia and annexed Crimea between Monday night and Tuesday morning.
