> Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered the government to create a program to rebuild logistics and warehouse facilities damaged in Ukrainian attacks, including with state involvement. He called for technologically upgraded repairs and acknowledged that the strikes are hurting Russia’s economy, while insisting they have caused no “critical consequences.” Ukrainian forces have repeatedly hit Wildberries logistics centers since July, with losses estimated at hundreds of billions of rubles.
