A logistics hub operated by Russian marketplace Ozon was struck in Saratov overnight on Sept. 11 as Ukraine continued a campaign against the company that began in August following strikes on Wildberries.
On Sept. 11, Russian company Ozon confirmed that its logistics center and delivery hub in Saratov came under a drone attack overnight, sparking a fire. Footage of the blaze had previously circulated on social media.
Ozon also acknowledged that it is currently not accepting new orders from customers in Saratov and surrounding Oblast and that some orders will be canceled.
Fire Point confirmed that its weapons were used in the strike.
In its infographic, NV looks back at previous Ukrainian strikes on Ozon, Russia's second-largest online marketplace. The company's first warehouse was hit on Aug. 22, 2026.
Ozon's operations
Ozon controls 30% of Russia's e-commerce market.
The company's warehouses and logistics facilities have a combined area of 5 million square meters (53.8 million square feet).
Russian businessman Alexander Chachava owns 34% of the company after acquiring the stake with funds from a company owned by Gennady Timchenko, a close associate of Vladimir Putin.
More than 2 million military and dual-use products have been sold through Ozon.
Impact of Ukrainian strikes
Losses from destroyed goods and losses incurred by sellers as a result of the August strikes could exceed $10 billion.
Six of the company's warehouse facilities were hit in attacks over just three days in August.
Three of the company's logistics facilities suspended operations following the attacks.
Ozon shares fell 27% on the Moscow Exchange following a series of strikes on Aug. 24, 2026.
A total of 233,000 square meters (2.5 million square feet), or 6%, of the company's warehouse space was destroyed.
