Wildberries Founder Tatyana Kim Loses $3.1 Billion Due to Attacks on Logistics

Wildberries founder Tatyana Kim lost $3.1 billion following drone attacks on the company's logistics infrastructure. Kim's capital, valued at $8.1 billion in February 2026, decreased by 39% to $5 billion due to the destruction of warehouses. The attacks began on July 18 and affected 23 logistics centers across 16 regions of Russia, some of which were completely burned down. The direct losses for the company due to the loss of infrastructure range from $1.75 billion to $2.65 billion. Despite the losses, Kim topped the ranking of the richest women in Russia for the fifth consecutive time. The combined wealth of the women in the ranking fell from $25.75 billion to $18.95 billion, and the number of women with fortunes exceeding $1 billion decreased from nine to four. Remaining on the list are Elena Baturina, Lyudmila Kogan, and Yekaterina Fedun. Exiting the list of billionaires are Tatyana Volodina, Natalia Lutsenko, Viktoria Mikhelson, and Lydia Sultseva. The Russian government refused to cover the $9.6 billion losses for the destroyed Wildberries warehouses, limiting itself to deferring tax payments.
