Ukrainian drones hit Saint Petersburg area, triggering warehouse fire

Ukrainian drones hit a warehouse near Saint Petersburg early Friday, triggering a fire that sent smoke pouring over the historic city, according to local media and images on social media.

The governor of the surrounding Leningrad region Alexander Drozdenko said earlier at least 50 Ukrainian drones had targeted the city, and the Wildberries retail giant -- whose sites have been targeted heavily over the past two weeks -- said two warehouses in the city had halted operations, without stating a reason.
