The fire in the Wildberries logistics center in Penza, which arose after the drone attack, has been localized. Oleg Melnichenko, Governor of the Penza Region, announced this on July 30.

"By now, the fire has been localized," he wrote on his Telegram channel.

It was clarified that a helicopter from the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations had arrived to help Penza firefighters.
