Aug 22 (Reuters) - The governor of Russia's Samara region said on Saturday that Ukrainian drones had hit an industrial facility, as well as a warehouse belonging to Ozon, a major Russian online retailer, in strikes overnight.
In a post on Telegram, Governor Vyacheslav Fedorishchev said that several people had been wounded in the strikes. He did not name the industrial facility struck, but the region hosts several oil refineries which have been repeatedly attacked by Ukraine.
Ozon, Russia's second-largest online retailer, said in a statement on Telegram that work at its Samara region logistics centre in the town of Chapayevsk had been halted after the strike, which it said caused injuries.
The strike is the first so far on Ozon, after weeks of strikes targetingits larger rival Wildberries, which Ukraine has cast as part of a wider campaign against economic infrastructure underpinning Russia's military campaign.
Russia's Defence Ministry said it downed 457 Ukrainian drones overnight.
