Friday blast occurred during a multi-day Russian run drones and rockets powered by jetswhich almost continuous sparked air alarms over Kiev and hit warehouses belonging to a chain of supermarkets, post offices, retailers and logistics companies. Minister of Agriculture of Ukraine Taras Wysocki told journalists that "more or less" approximately 90% food logistics infrastructure utilized by large retail networks (large distribution centres serving networks specified as Fora, Silpo, NOVUS and Varus) has been destroyed. Still, Wysotskyi assures that it will not origin hunger – due to the fact that the networks control to more costly deliveries straight from the maker "on wheels". However, shops in Kiev study empty shelves for vegetables, dairy products and basic products.

The last functioning Epicenter hypermarket in Zaporozh was besides hit Friday morning, hours before the detonation in Myla.

Both sides systematically hit logistics and commercial infrastructure with dual purpose. Ukraine attacked Russian refineries, power plants and online retailers' warehouses. Russia responded by attacking warehouses that keep Ukrainian stores in stock. Kiev Air defence remains restricted by well documented deficiency capture Patriot – the only strategy that reliably stops ballistic missiles. Drones powered by jets added another layer of pressure.

Zelenski's government presented its far-reaching attacks as a means of forcing Russia to negotiate. The direct effect is visible in the suburbs of Kiev: another poorly located ammunition warehouse ready next to civilians, a retail logistics network which according to the Ukrainian minister disappeared in 90% and winter is approaching. An investigation into who decided to store explosives next to their homes will tell 1 part of the story. Empty shelves and sirens will tell the others.
