Overnight Ukrainian drone strikes destroyed a major warehouse terminal belonging to Delovye Linii, one of Russia’s largest commercial logistics companies, The Moscow Times reported on August 3, citing local outlet Pepel.

The strike targeted a cross-docking facility on Kommunalnaya Street inside the Kreyda industrial park on the southeastern edge of Belgorod. The attack destroyed the main facility and damaged an adjacent building, The Moscow Times wrote.

Serving as a key regional node for receiving, sorting, and distributing less-than-truckload (LTL) freight, the site is the first targeted attack on Delovye Linii infrastructure during the war. NASA satellite thermal data confirmed at least two active fire hotspots in the industrial zone following the strike, The Moscow Times noted.

Belgorod Governor Alexander Shuvaev acknowledged the strikes, stating that overnight drone attacks ignited two commercial warehouse facilities, The Moscow Times reported.

The overnight strikes coincided with wider Ukrainian operations targeting Russian rear infrastructure, where long-range drones struck a drone research building at Belgorod State Technological University and a massive Wildberries logistics hub in the Vladimir region.
