WHAT HAPPENED
Ukrainian long‑range drones struck a Wildberries warehouse in Yekaterinburg, Russia, setting it on fire on Friday, Aug. 4, 2026, and firefighters extinguished the blaze the following day.
The attack occurred more than 2,000 km (1,200 mi) from the Russia‑Ukraine border, part of a pattern of Ukrainian drone strikes on distant Russian targets. According to local officials and the company, most merchandise was unharmed, though several other Wildberries depots have burned in recent weeks. Ukraine has also hit a Russian oil refinery in western Siberia about 2,500 km from the border.
