Video: A cloud of smoke from the burning Wildberries warehouses and oil depot has blanketed the Moscow region

Russian social media is flooded with photos and videos from the scene where Ukrainian drones struck the Wildberries logistics center in Elektrostal, near Moscow, and the oil depots in Noginsk. A thick cloud of smoke stretches for kilometers. Meanwhile, local authorities are not warning people of the danger. 

 

It is reported that the smoke is visible from dozens of kilometers away from the fire sites, for example, in Domodedovo, near Sergiev Posad, and in New Moscow.

A Wildberries warehouse is on fire in Elektrostal, near Moscow, following a Ukrainian attack. The governor of the Moscow Region confirmed the attack and reported 24 casualties.

It is also reported that, following the attacks by Ukrainian special forces UAVs on logistics hubs, the Russians are already tallying up massive financial losses and are beginning to question Putin’s war.

“The Main Investigative Directorate of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation has opened criminal cases regarding the terrorist attacks carried out by Ukrainian armed groups against civilian infrastructure facilities in the city of Kotovsk, Tambov Region, and the city of Elektrostal, Moscow Region (Article 205 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation),” an official spokesperson for the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation told Russian propagandists.

 

As a reminder, on the night of July 18, Ukrainian UAVs attacked the Russian Wildberries logistics center in Elektrostal, near Moscow, and in the Tambov region.

On July 18, Ukrainian drones struck 13 Russian ships in the Azov and Black Seas.

In Crimea, Ukrainian drones set fire to two substations and the Gvardeyskoye airfield.
