Fires have been reported at two large logistics facilities in the Moscow Region. These are the Wildberries warehouse in Koledino and the “Northern Domodedovo” multimodal logistics complex. According to preliminary data, the fires may have been caused by a drone attack.
This was reported by the Exilenova+ Telegram channel.
OSINT analysts reported an explosion and fire at one of Wildberries’ large logistics complexes in the village of Koleshino in the Moscow Region, which is part of the Podilsk Urban District.
Separately, reports emerged of a fire at the “Pivnichne Domodedovo” multimodal logistics complex.
According to preliminary data, both facilities may have been attacked by drones on the night of August 16. However, Russian authorities have not provided any official information regarding the nature of the damage or the causes of the fires.
As a reminder, Russia’s largest marketplace, Wildberries, has reportedly lost about one-third of its warehouse capacity: goods with an estimated value of 480 billion rubles were destroyed in at least 12 large logistics hubs that were completely destroyed by fire. This amount is comparable to the annual budgets of certain large regions of the Russian Federation, specifically the Krasnoyarsk Krai—527 billion rubles—and the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug—476 billion rubles.
