A significant fire erupted at a Wildberries warehouse in St. Petersburg, Russia, on Tuesday, July 24th, following what officials described as a Ukrainian drone strike. Wildberries is the largest online retailer in Russia and is often compared to Amazon.
The strike and subsequent blaze occurred in Russia's second-largest city. Emergency services responded to the incident, which generated a massive column of smoke visible from afar. Details regarding casualties or the extent of the damage were not immediately available from the initial reports.
