“A fire broke out at one of the company’s logistics facilities in the Vladimir region following an attack,” Wildberries said in a statement, adding that staff had been evacuated.

The attack was reportedly carried out with drones and a young man was injured, according to the region's governor, Aleksandr Avdeyev.

“Emergency services are working at the scene. The drone threat remains,” he wrote early Monday morning.

Citing the company’s goods as important to Russia’s war effort, Ukraine has attacked around 20 Wildberries facilities since mid-July in various parts of Russia and in occupied Crimea.
