On the morning of August 13, the Ukrainian Defense Forces launched a drone strike on a Russian e-commerce platform Wildberries logistics hub in Bashkortostan.

Following the strike, a fire broke out at the site. Footage of the incident was published by monitoring outlets, including Exilenova+.

Militarnyi’s OSINT analysis confirmed the strike on the company’s logistics facility located within the Center for Agrotechnologies agropark in the Chishminsky district of the region.

Wildberries later confirmed the attack on a logistics hub in Bashkortostan.

“An airstrike in Bashkortostan caused a fire in an industrial zone where one of the company’s facilities is located. Fire crews are on the scene…,” the press service stated.

Construction of the logistics center attacked today began in 2024. The facility has a total area of about 186,800 square meters and is divided into two buildings measuring 123,300 and 63,500 square meters, respectively.

The complex is not yet fully completed. Construction is proceeding in phases, but part of the facility is already being used for the marketplace’s logistics operations.

On the night of August 11, Ukrainian drones struck the Wildberries logistics complex near Voronezh, causing a massive fire there.

The facility covered an area of 152,900 square meters and had a capacity of over 90 million SKUs.

According to analysts at Data Insight, following a series of Ukrainian strikes, Wildberries, Russia’s largest marketplace, lost at least 12 large warehouse complexes.

The company’s losses from the strikes on its warehouses continue to rise. Analysts note that the total value of goods destroyed at the targeted warehouses is approximately $6 billion.
