Russian forces struck a BaDM warehouse, marking the fourth time a facility owned by the major Ukrainian pharmaceutical distributor has been hit since the start of September, Ekonomichna Pravda reported on September 14.
The warehouse sustained significant damage, though no casualties were reported.
The Professional Pharmacy Association of Ukraine previously warned of dwindling medicine stocks in pharmacy warehouses, advising individuals who take regular medication to stock up on a two- to three-month supply.
Earlier, on September 3, a Russian attack damaged the Biocon logistics complex in the Boryspil district of Kyiv Oblast, which serves as one of Ukraine's largest specialized pharmaceutical warehouses.
A warehouse used by international drugmaker Teva was hit twice during a wave of Russian airstrikes on September 3.
Russian forces struck Universal Logistic on September 13, targeting the second-largest pharmaceutical warehouse in Ukraine.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
