Ukrainian Drones Strike

Ukrainian drones struck the Rosneft-owned Ryazan oil refinery and a Wildberries logistics warehouse in Ryazan on July 29, 2026.
The attacks crippled a logistics hub that serves roughly half of Russia’s online shoppers, endangering workers and small sellers.
Ryazan refinery processes about 17.1 million tons of crude yearly, roughly five percent of Russia’s output.
Wildberries temporarily restricted warehouse access and removed “special military operation” items from its search results.

Blindspot

Wildberries said it removed from its site and hid from its search results any products associated with Russia’s “special military operation” after the Ryazan drone strike.
Within this story's sources, this angle appears mainly in Left-leaning coverage and receives less attention in Center-leaning coverage.

History

Historical Context

Following Russia’s invasion on 24 February 2022, Ukraine launched drone strikes on Russian logistics, targeting oil depots and Wildberries warehouses. In July 2022 drones hit 19 of 71 Belgorod petrol stations (?27 % of fuel sites) and later attacked Moscow Oblast, where Mayor Sergey Sobyanin reported 370 drones launched. The sustained campaign has driven Russian authorities to expand anti-drone defenses.
