Ukrainian forces reportedly struck a major Wildberries logistics and distribution complex in Russia’s Bashkortostan region overnight Thursday, with a large fire breaking out at the facility shortly after the attack.
The strike reportedly occurred in the Chishminsky district, where one of Russian online marketplace Wildberries’ major logistics hubs is located, according to the Exilenova+ Telegram channel, RBC Ukraine reported.

“A large Wildberries warehouse and distribution complex is on fire in the Chishminsky district of Bashkortostan,” the channel reported.
The facility is reportedly used to store, sort and distribute goods, including items described as dual-use products.
The report said the fire erupted at the complex following the alleged Ukrainian strike. The extent of the damage and whether there were casualties was not immediately clear.
The reported attack comes amid a series of Ukrainian strikes targeting Russian infrastructure and industrial facilities far from the front lines.
A major oil refinery in Bashkortostan was also reportedly on fire around the same time. The refinery produces automotive gasoline, diesel fuel, fuel oil, polyethylene and other products.
The distance involved highlights the expanding reach of Ukraine’s long-range drone campaign, with the refinery reportedly located about 1,400 kilometers from Ukraine.
Wildberries has previously faced disruptions and losses linked to reported Ukrainian attacks, while the company has introduced tighter security restrictions following the strikes.
