Ukraine’s targeted campaign against Russian military logistics has now knocked out 60% of the total storage capacity at major Wildberries fulfillment hubs. The latest strike on a massive facility in Volgograd triggered an inferno, marking at least the 18th marketplace depot targeted in just two weeks.
Key impacts on Russia’s war machine and financial sector:
War Supply Line Severed: Wildberries hubs openly stored and distributed military tactical gear, uniforms, and strike drones directly for the Russian army.
VTB Liquidity Emergency: Already under international sanctions for financing the war, VTB Bank—heavily affiliated with Wildberries—is facing a compounding liquidity crisis.
Panic Bank Runs: Terrified clients are rushing to withdraw cash en masse, deepening financial instability alongside widespread energy blackouts and civilian migration from occupied areas.
When military warehouses burn and state banks bleed cash, the economic foundation of the invasion collapses.
