Eight people have been killed in Ukrainian drone attacks on warehouses belonging to Russia's largest online retailer, Wildberries, according to Russian authorities. 
Around 60 people were also injured after two huge warehouses of Russia's major online retailer, Wildberries, were hit by Ukrainian drones overnight, according to Russian officials: one in the town of Kotovsk in the Tambov region, roughly 475km (295 miles) southeast of Moscow, and another one in the city of Elektrostal, about 50 kilometers (some 30 miles) east of Moscow. 
In a separate incident, the governor of the Moscow region, Andrei Vorobyov, said falling drone debris caused a fire to break out at an oil depot in the city of Noginsk. 
He did not specify the damage to the facility, but said two people were injured in the city and a nearby maternity hospital had been evacuated. 
Earlier, Volodymyr Zelensky said Ukraine’s Security Service destroyed a Russian bomber plane nearly 500 miles inside Russia. 
The Tu-95 strategic plane was taken out at the Engels air base in Russia's Saratov Oblast. 
Zelensky is facing mounting protests in Kyiv over the removal of a popular defence minister, with thousands gathering to demand the reinstatement of Mykhailo Fedorov, a 35-year-old tech wizard who has been partly credited with Ukraine's recent successes in the war with Russia.
