Volodymyr Zelenskyy confirmed that Ukrainian forces struck several logistics hubs and an oil depot in the Moscow region to disrupt the Russian army's supply of drone components and navigation equipment. The strikes targeted warehouses belonging to Wildberries, Russia's largest online retailer, which are used to supply dual-use goods and electronics to the Russian military. The attacks caused significant damage to the Krasnodar and Stavropol regions, injuring 15 people and causing fires at an oil depot in Podolsk. These strikes follow a period of intense activity where Russia has launched more ballistic missiles than it produces monthly, dipping into its stockpiles to maintain pressure on Ukrainian territory. While the strikes caused collateral damage to civilian infrastructure, including apartment buildings and a passenger coach in the Belgorod region, Ukraine maintains that it is primarily targeting military assets. The administration of the Ukrainian military is currently navigating internal leadership shifts as the country continues to balance offensive drone strikes with defensive maneuvers against Russian ballistic missiles.
