NEW YORK—Oreo cookie maker Mondelez International Inc. said its plant in Trostyanets, a town in eastern Ukraine, has suffered “significant damage” because of military action due to the war.

The company added that to the best of its knowledge, no employees were injured in the attack. The Oreo plant—one of at least two Mondelez factories in Ukraine, according to Mondelez employees—was closed as soon as the war began, Mondelez said in an emailed statement. Russia invaded Ukraine over a month ago in what it calls a “special operation.”
