Five people were killed in a Ukrainian drone attack on an industrial zone in Chekhov, a town in the Moscow region, according to regional governor Andrei Vorobyov.
The strike also targeted Wildberries, one of Russia’s largest e-commerce platforms, marking a continued effort by Kyiv to disrupt logistics and supply chains deep inside Russian territory.
The incident underscores the intensifying cycle of reciprocal strikes between the two nations.
Earlier reports indicated that four people were killed in a Russian strike on Ukraine’s Sumi region overnight, while one fatality was recorded in Russia’s Belgorod region.
These simultaneous escalations highlight the persistent volatility along the border and the expanding reach of drone warfare into previously secure areas.
For markets, the targeting of major logistics infrastructure like Wildberries signals ongoing operational risks for Russian commercial entities.
