Quote: "Due to the enemy attack on Kyiv, Asnova Holding’s warehouse facility, covering 4,500 square metres, has been completely destroyed. The workshop, production site and logistics hub of Winetime have also been damaged."

Details: Reportedly, there were no casualties.

"We are currently reorganising our workshop and logistics operations to minimise the consequences of the attack on store operations," the company added.

The company also reported that the destruction is significant and that damage is being assessed.

On 12 April, a direct drone strike by Russia completely destroyed a pharmaceutical warehouse owned by the Kusum Group of Companies (the Gladpharm LTD facility) in Kyiv. The estimated financial damage is approximately UAH 1 billion (about US$24.2 million).

The warehouse contained finished medicines, pharmaceutical substances, excipients used in drug manufacturing and new production equipment – all of which were completely destroyed.

"This is a serious financial loss for our company, but the most important thing is that none of our employees were harmed," the Kusum Group of Companies reported.

Background: On the night of 12 April, Russian forces launched yet another drone attack on Kyiv.
