Wildberries continues to sell goods to russian military and is trying to hide it - Center for Countering Disinformation
The russian marketplace Wildberries has not stopped selling goods for the military of the aggressor country, the russian federation, thereby confirming that its warehouses are military facilities. It was reported by the Center for Countering Disinformation (CCD).
The Center stated that the marketplace did not remove military goods from its website but merely attempted to make them less conspicuous. The tag “Everything for ‘SVO’” has disappeared from the catalog, but the goods themselves remain: they have simply been distributed across regular categories.
As a result, body armor and helmets are now sold in the “Sports” section, while FPV drones and accessories are listed under “Electronics.” Using relevant search terms, you can still find military first-aid kits, walkie-talkies, tactical backpacks, insignia, and flags.
“This tactic of obfuscation indicates that Wildberries is not abandoning its support for the Russian military machine,” the CCD emphasized.
As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, according to Estonian intelligence, the damage caused by strikes by the Ukrainian Defense Forces on the warehouses of the russian marketplace Wildberries over the past few days could amount to USD 2 billion.
Estonian intelligence also stated that although Wildberries is not directly a military enterprise, it acts as an intermediary in supplying equipment to russian soldiers on the front lines in Ukraine.
