Ukraine hits more Wildberries sites as strike kills five in Moscow region
Meanwhile, Ukraine's State Emergency Service said an 89-year-old woman was killed and two girls, aged two and 12, were among seven injured in a Russian strike on the southern port city of Mykolaiv overnight.
A woman and two girls, aged five and 10, were killed in a strike on a residential area in Sumy, and another four people were injured, it said.
Russian strikes also injured two people in the city of Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi, while a food warehouse was set on fire in Dnipro, according to the State Emergency Service.
It comes a day after a busy beach in southern Russia was hit by a drone, killing seven people and injuring 58, according to Russian officials.
Social media footage verified by the BBC shows a drone crashing and exploding on a beach in the Krasnodar region as tourists look on from the shore and in the water.
Some Ukrainian Telegram channels have claimed it crashed onto the beach as a result of electronic warfare which jammed the drone's signal, while eyewitnesses were quoted by Russian media as saying gunfire preceded the explosion, indicating that air defences may have tried to shoot the drone down.
The area's regional governor accused Ukraine of "a deliberate strike on civilians". Ukraine has not commented.
Both sides deny targeting civilians deliberately.

Ukraine conducted strikes against Wildberries distribution facilities. Separately, Russian military operations resulted in civilian casualties across southern and eastern Ukraine: an 89-year-old woman killed in Mykolaiv along with seven injured; a woman and two girls killed in Sumy with four injured; two injured in Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi; a food warehouse damaged in Dnipro. In the Krasnodar region of southern Russia, a drone struck a beach crowded with civilians, killing seven and injuring 58. Video verified by BBC shows the drone exploding on the beach. Russian officials state Ukraine was responsible. The immediate cause of the drone's presence on the beach—whether from electronic countermeasures, air defence fire, or other factors—is unclear and disputed.
