In Adygeysk, Adygea and Nevinnomyssk, Stavropol, Ozon employees have been evacuated.
BBC‑verified footage shows a drone striking a warehouse in Orenburg and, separately, a massive plume of smoke and flames rising from a facility in Dagestan.
On Monday morning, Ozon’s shares dropped up to 12% on the Moscow Exchange, while those of its principal shareholder, the private‑equity firm AFK Sistema, fell nearly 13%.
When questioned on Monday about potential state assistance for Ozon, the Kremlin replied that it was “working with business representatives to explore various forms of support in this challenging situation.”
The overnight attacks follow a strike on Ozon’s site in the Samara region the previous day, which the company said injured several of its workers.
After the strike, Ukraine’s defence ministry said on Saturday that systematic attacks on dual‑use storage centres complicate enemy logistics and adversely affect the Russian economy overall.
It follows Ukraine’s hits on fifteen of Wildberries’ major logistics hubs.
In Ukraine’s Odesa region, overnight strikes hit food storage sites and energy infrastructure, injuring five people, regional head Oleg Kiper reported on Telegram.
Founded in 1998, Ozon ranks among Russia’s earliest online retailers and, after Wildberries, is the second‑largest in scale and reach, operating pickup points and delivery hubs nationwide.
The Ozon and Wildberries logos are frequently displayed together at shared pickup points across Russia.
The targeting of these online retailers has increasingly brought the conflict closer to ordinary Russians.
Both firms are commonly described as “Russia’s Amazon,” serving an estimated 85‑90% of the country’s economically active population.
In many remote areas lacking accessible shops, Russians rely on them for a large portion of clothing and household goods.
Unlike Amazon, which sells products directly in addition to its marketplace operations, Wildberries and Ozon function primarily as marketplaces, linking independent sellers with buyers nationwide, managing storage, delivery and payment processing.
Consequently, much of the financial loss from these attacks falls on those businesses.
The Kremlin has denied that online platforms are employed for military supply purposes.
