In a series of airstrikes on Russia, Ukrainian drones killed at least six civilians overnight and also struck a warehouse owned by online retailer Ozone and an industrial facility in the Samara region, Russian regional officials said Saturday.
Samara governor Vyacheslav Fedorishchev said in a Telegram post that several people were injured in the airstrike. He did not name the industrial facility that was attacked, but the Ukrainian military said the Novokybyshevsk oil refinery in the region had been attacked, causing a fire.
Russia’s second-largest online retailer Ozon said in a statement on Telegram that work at its Samara regional distribution center in Chapaevsk has stopped due to injuries following a strike.
The attack is the first against Ozone, following weeks of drone strikes against its larger rival Wildberry, launched by Ukraine as part of a broader campaign against the economic infrastructure supporting Russia’s war in the country.
Veniamin Kondratyev, the governor of Russia’s southern Krasnodar region, said two children were killed and two adults were injured in the attack in the Azov Sea port town of Yeisk. He said the fire broke out at an unnamed facility at the town’s port.
The governor of Russia’s Belgorod region, which borders Ukraine, announced that two people were killed and 13 injured in the Ukrainian attack. Four people were injured in Bryansk, another remote region, according to the local governor.
In Ukraine’s eastern Luhansk region, which is almost entirely controlled by Russia, Moscow-installed governor Leonid Pashechnik announced that two civilians, including a 16-year-old boy, were killed and nine others injured.
The Russian Ministry of Defense announced that it shot down a total of 457 Ukrainian drones overnight.
