Wildberries Logistics Stalled by Overnight Drone Strikes

The disruption follows a weekend of escalating aerial assaults that hit four separate facilities belonging to the e-commerce giant. While the Kremlin dismisses claims that these warehouses serve military purposes, the economic ripple effects are undeniable. Small businesses relying on the Wildberries platform to reach consumers now face mounting delays and financial strain as the company scrambles to reroute its supply chain.

Despite the significant loss of infrastructure, management insists that the pause is temporary and expects to resume full operations shortly. The strikes represent a shift in strategy, bringing the conflict directly to the heart of Russia’s consumer economy—a sector that remains a vital pillar for national growth plans alongside competitor Ozon.
