Two logistics facilities belonging to Russian e-commerce company Ozon were targeted in overnight drone attacks in the cities of Orenburg and Ufa, the company said.

Ozon said all employees at the facilities were evacuated during the attacks and that preliminary assessments showed no injuries among workers. The company reported that operations at the Orenburg logistics center resumed after the incident, while the Ufa facility was temporarily closed for further inspections due to damage.

Ozon facilities become targets in recent drone attacks

The latest incidents add to a series of drone strikes targeting logistics infrastructure linked to major Russian online retailers.

In recent weeks, facilities belonging to Ozon and Wildberries have been repeatedly targeted in drone attacks, causing operational disruptions at several warehouses across Russia.

Earlier attacks on Ozon facilities included strikes on logistics centers in regions such as Orenburg and Samara, where the company reported evacuations and temporary suspension of operations.

Investigation continues

Russian authorities have not provided details on who carried out the latest attacks or the type of drones involved.

The incidents come amid an increase in drone attacks targeting Russian economic and logistics infrastructure during the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war. (ILKHA)
