The Ukrainian Defense Forces have once again struck the large Wildberries logistics complex in Kotovsk, Russia. Following the attack, a massive fire broke out on the facility’s grounds, which cover an area of approximately 108,000 square meters.
This was reported by the Exilenova+ Telegram channel.
The center was already attacked in July
The Kotovsk Logistics Complex is one of Wildberries’ major facilities in Central Russia. It was launched in 2025, and once it reached full capacity, it was supposed to store up to 54 million units of goods.
This is not the first time the facility has been damaged. On July 18, a fire broke out on the complex’s premises, killing seven employees. Following the incident, operations at the center were temporarily suspended.
Wildberries Is Losing Warehouse Space
This latest incident comes amid a reduction in the company’s warehouse capacity. According to available data, as of the end of July, Wildberries had already lost more than 1 million square meters of warehouse space.
Footage released after the second incident shows a massive fire on the grounds of the Kotovsk complex. Details regarding the nature of the damage are currently being clarified.
As a reminder, Ukrainian forces struck seven of the ten largest logistics centers of the Russian marketplace Wildberries, putting them out of commission.
