Russians launched a missile strike on a medicine warehouse in Dnipro: the largest distributor was affected

In Dnipro, the warehouse of one of the largest pharmaceutical distributors in the country, the company “BaDM”, was shelled by Russian military forces. This is not the first instance of targeted attacks on medical storage facilities in the region, which also occurred in October and November of this year.

Extent of destruction and previous attacks

At this moment, the exact number of casualties and the extent of material damage remain unknown. The official website of the distributor “BaDM” states that the area of their warehouse complexes is 60,000 square meters.

A series of attacks on pharmaceutical infrastructure has been ongoing for several months. On November 15, Russian forces struck the warehouse of another key player in the pharmaceutical market — the company “Optima-Pharm” in Dnipro, resulting in the complete destruction of the facility. However, none of the warehouse employees were harmed.

“This attack also destroyed 20% of Ukraine’s monthly supply of medicines.”

Systematic strikes on the pharmaceutical sector

Earlier, on October 25, a warehouse complex and office of “Optima-Pharm” in Kyiv were destroyed, with damages from that attack estimated at around 100 million dollars. Additionally, on August 28, Russian missiles struck another warehouse of this company in the capital.

At the beginning of the full-scale war, the Russian Federation had already attacked the logistics complexes of the company “BaDM” in Kyiv and Poltava regions, indicating a systematic approach to destroying critically important pharmaceutical infrastructure in Ukraine.
