The director of a Russian drone factory in the Urals was badly wounded when his car exploded, the state Tass news agency reported. It didn’t immediately give details of the explosion or say who could be responsible.

Russian workers flee in panic as Ukrainian long-range drones attack the Wildberries logistics center in Yekaterinburg in the Sverdlovsk region of Russia. Yekaterinburg is located in Asia on the eastern slopes of the Ural Mountains right next to the Western Siberian Plain.

🚨 Putin to flee the Kremlin? Thousands of drones are set to target Moscow! Zelensky has declared that the war has entered a new decisive phase — one in which the outcome will be determined not on land or at sea, but in the sky. The logic is simple. The front line on land has largely stalled, while Russia's Black Sea Fleet has been pushed out of the Black Sea by Ukrainian naval drones. That means the battle has shifted to the air. And there, Zelensky says, Ukraine is already on equal footing. When it's no longer 100 drones flying toward Moscow but thousands, Putin will understand. When he starts seeing it with his own eyes, his advisers will be urging him to relocate somewhere beyond the Urals.
