Meet Russia's richest woman, a billionaire whose e-commerce company is being targeted by Ukrainian drone strikes

• Tatyana Kim is Russia’s richest woman with an estimated net worth of $8.1 billion.
• She founded e-commerce retailer Wildberries, Russia’s version of Amazon that sells a range of items.
• Wildberries warehouses have been targeted by Ukrainian strikes.

Ukrainian strikes have destroyed one-third of Wildberries warehouse space across Russia, The New York Times reported.

At least 23 Wildberries facilities have been hit by Ukrainian drone strikes, killing nine employees and resulting in a loss of $5.9 billion in goods, The New York Times reported.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that strikes against Russian warehouses target logistics hubs “involved in providing the Russian army with drone components, navigation equipment and other gear,” BBC reported.

Kim labeled the strikes “terrorist attacks” in a video message released in July.
