Five killed in drone attack on warehouse near Moscow, Russia says it intercepted 320 drones

At least five people were killed and another 10 were injured in a Ukrainian drone attack on a warehouse near Moscow, regional governor Andrey Vorobyov said, without specifying the precise target.

Vorobyov noted that the attack comes amid a series of strikes in recent weeks on facilities operated by "Wildberries", a company often called the "Russian Amazon".

Local authorities further reported that Wildberries warehouses in the Saint Petersburg and Tver regions were also hit overnight.

Ministry of Defence: 320 unmanned aerial vehicles intercepted

The Russian Ministry of Defence said that 320 unmanned aerial vehicles were intercepted and destroyed during the night, without providing further operational details in the brief statement.

The attacks intensify the reckonings related to the conflict in Ukraine, in which logistics hubs and commercial warehouses have become a more frequent target in recent weeks.
