Russian strikes have destroyed more than 400,000 square meters of Ukrainian business warehouses — Forbes
Since the start of the full-scale war, Russia has destroyed more than 400,000 square meters of warehouse space belonging to Ukrainian businesses.
Logistics facilities belonging to Fozzy Group, Rozetka, Epicenter, Nova Poshta, and other companies have been targeted.
According to Forbes Ukraine, the destruction of warehouse infrastructure could lead to temporary shortages of certain goods. In particular, the “Fora” chain has already reported a reduction in the number of promotions and possible changes to its product range due to logistical restructuring.
To mitigate risks, large companies are increasingly shifting to a model of distributing goods across several regional warehouses. At the same time, this approach requires significantly higher logistics and infrastructure costs.

Russia’s massive strikes on Ukraine’s retail and logistics infrastructure are not expected to cause a nationwide shortage of goods. However, in certain regions and stores, there may be temporary supply disruptions, a reduced product selection, and a gradual increase in logistics costs.
Russian troops struck Pavlohrad in the Dnipropetrovsk region. One person was killed and four others were injured as a result of the attack.
