On the night of 24 August, drones attacked logistics centres belonging to the Russian marketplace Ozon in the Stavropol Krai, Adygea and Dagestan. Fires broke out at the sites.

Ozon subsequently confirmed the damage to its logistics centres.

A fire broke out at the facility near Enem

Drones attacked a logistics centre belonging to the Russian marketplace Ozon near the village of Enem in Adygea. The facility sustained significant damage, and a large-scale fire broke out following the attack.

According to OSINT analysts, the facility in question is the Ozon logistics centre "KRASNODAR_2_RFC", which is located not in Krasnodar, as the company initially reported, but in Adygea – near Enem.

The exact address of the facility is the village of Druzhny, Industrial Park, Takhtamukaysky District. The logistics centre covers an area of approximately 91,200 square metres.

The facility is situated approximately 390 kilometres from the border with Ukraine.

Local residents reported an attack on the Ozon warehouse in the Enem area and a fire at the site.

Subsequently, Ozon’s press office stated that its logistics centre in Krasnodar was ablaze as a result of the attack. According to the company, all staff had been evacuated.

However, local residents and readers of the Russian Telegram channel Astra clarified that the facility in question is the ‘KRASNODAR_2_RFC’ warehouse, which is actually situated in Adygea, near Enem.
