Fort Myers Naples, FL, August 19, 2026 —

Ukraine has conducted a drone attack targeting a significant logistics center located in close proximity to Moscow, according to reports. The assault resulted in a substantial fire at the facility.

The operation was reportedly carried out by the 413th “Raid” Unmanned Systems Regiment. This incident is understood to be part of a broader Ukrainian strategy focused on penetrating Russian territory to strike military, industrial, and logistical infrastructure.
