More than eleven million books burned during Ukrainian attacks on Wildberries, the Russian Amazon

Over eleven million books were destroyed at logistics centers belonging to the Russian e-commerce company Wildberries following a series of Ukrainian drone attacks conducted over recent weeks. The destruction of the inventory occurred as part of broader military strikes targeting the company's facilities.

Among the destroyed items was a collection of Ray Bradbury’s science-fiction novel Fahrenheit 451. The work depicts a dystopian future where books are banned and protagonists attempt to preserve literature from state-sanctioned burning, drawing historical parallels to the recent loss of the massive inventory.
