No one was killed, but a production building was damaged, Sybiha wrote.

The facility, located in Trostyanets, is owned by snack giant Mondelez International.

The Chicago-based company, which also makes Ritz crackers, Toblerone chocolate and Trident gum, did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Saturday evening.

The Kremlin did not immediately respond to a request for comment overnight on Saturday.

“When Russian missiles hit such sites, they are not only targeting Ukraine,” Sybiha wrote.

“They are targeting American business interests in Europe.”

The same factory was badly damaged in 2022 during Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

The plant partially reopened in 2023 to make chocolate and then resumed manufacturing Oreos in 2024.

Mondelez has faced criticism for continuing business operations in Russia during the war.
