Ukraine struck an Ozon warehouse in Russia.
The Russian Ministry of Defense reported that 457 Ukrainian drones were shot down overnight.
At least 10 people were killed on August 22 as a result of Ukrainian drone attacks on Russia and Russian-controlled Ukrainian territories. One of the strikes hit a logistics center in the Samara region belonging to Ozon, Russia's second-largest online retailer. Reuters reported this.
According to Russian officials, the attacks were carried out in several regions of the country, as well as in Russian-controlled Ukrainian territories. Among the targets struck were industrial enterprises and oil infrastructure.
Vyacheslav Fedorishchev, governor of Russia's Samara region, said an elderly woman was killed in an attack on the city of Novokuibyshevsk. According to him, industrial facilities were damaged as a result of the attack. Ukrainian military officials reported that an oil refinery in the city was struck and a fire broke out there.
Ozon said operations were suspended at its logistics center in the city of Chapayevsk in the Samara region following the attack. The company reported that employees were injured as a result of the strike. This was the first attack on Ozon facilities following a series of strikes in recent weeks on warehouses of Russia's major online retailer Wildberries.
According to Veniamin Kondratyev, governor of the Krasnodar region, three people, including two children, were killed in strikes on the port city of Yeysk on the Sea of Azov coast. Another adult civilian was wounded. A fire broke out at one of the unnamed facilities in the port.
The governor of the Belgorod region said two people were killed and 13 wounded as a result of Ukrainian attacks. In the Bryansk region, four people were injured.
In the city of Sevastopol in Crimea, Moscow-appointed governor Mikhail Razvozhayev said a Ukrainian drone struck a city bus. According to him, at least two people were killed and 10 wounded in the incident.
In the Russian-controlled Luhansk region, Moscow-appointed governor Leonid Pasechnik reported that two civilians, including a 16-year-old teenager, were killed and nine more people were wounded.
Russia's Ministry of Defense said 457 Ukrainian drones were shot down overnight.
Russia and Ukraine have recently been intensifying long-range drone attacks against each other's economic and logistics infrastructure. Kyiv describes such strikes as a campaign aimed at reducing Russia's ability to finance and sustain the war.
Russian President Vladimir Putin, meanwhile, said Ukraine had "opened a Pandora's box" by striking economic targets and that Moscow could strengthen its retaliatory measures.
These attacks show that the geography of strikes between the sides is expanding as Russia's war in Ukraine approaches the 4.5-year mark.
Meanwhile, earlier, at least 16 people were killed and more than 130 wounded in a Russian drone attack on a shopping center in the city of Kryvyi Rih in central Ukraine.
