Strike drones hit industrial sites in Russia's Bashkortostan region, sparking fires in Sterlitamak and Blagoveshchensk, according to monitoring channels and Russian officials. Ozon confirmed a drone strike on its Ufa logistics facility, describing the damage as minor while acknowledging operations were temporarily suspended; a separate strike hit an Ozon warehouse in Orenburg, which the company says has since resumed normal operations.

The Bashkir Soda Company, a flagship chemical facility in Sterlitamak that supplies materials including terephthaloyl chloride — used in synthetic ballistic fiber and body armor production — also caught fire following the strikes. Russia's Ministry of Defense claimed it intercepted 267 drones overnight across 13 regions and occupied Crimea.

The full dispatch is available from the source below.
