Drivers are queuing at petrol stations, and some petrol stations are restricting fuel sales.<\/p>\n<div class=\"news-summary-box\">\n<div class=\"summary-title\">Briefly about the main points<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>There is a petrol shortage in many regions of Russia.<\/li>\n<li>Long queues are forming at petrol stations as people queue for fuel.<\/li>\n<li>Some petrol stations are imposing restrictions on petrol sales.<\/li>\n<li>Supply problems have been reported from the Leningrad Oblast to Vladivostok.<\/li>\n<li>Experts attribute the crisis to logistical problems and attacks on infrastructure.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2>A fuel shortage has affected various regions of the Russian Federation<\/h2>\n<p>In a number of regions in Russia, notably the Novosibirsk, Omsk, Tomsk and Irkutsk regions, as well as the Leningrad Region and the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug, serious <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/world\/deficit-benzynu-rf-udary-zsu\/\">problems with fuel supply<\/a>. Local residents are actively posting photos and videos showing long queues at petrol stations. Many petrol stations have temporarily stopped selling certain types of fuel, causing panic amongst drivers.<\/p>\n<h2>Restrictions at petrol stations<\/h2>\n<p>In view of rising demand and supply disruptions, many petrol stations are introducing restrictions on petrol sales. Drivers are only allowed to purchase a limited number of litres per visit. Some petrol stations have run out of petrol, forcing motorists to seek fuel in other areas. The situation is most acute in Siberia and the Far East, where alternative supply sources are limited.<\/p>\n<h2>The queues have even reached Moscow<\/h2>\n<p>Fuel shortages are also being felt in Moscow and the Moscow Region. Long queues are forming at some petrol stations, and drivers are complaining about a lack of petrol or delays in its supply. On social media, Russians are comparing this situation to the shortages of goods during the Soviet era.<\/p>\n<h2>What might have caused the crisis<\/h2>\n<p>Experts believe that the reasons <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/world\/palivna-kriza-rosiya-deficit-obmezhennya\/\">fuel crisis<\/a> are due to a combination of several factors. These include seasonal increases in demand, logistical problems and disruptions to the operation of oil refineries. Recently, attacks on oil depots and fuel and energy infrastructure facilities have also been reported in Russia, which may have had a negative impact on the stability of supplies.<\/p>\n<h2>Why it matters<\/h2>\n<p>A fuel shortage in a country that is one of the world\u2019s largest oil producers points to serious problems with logistics and the distribution of resources. If the situation does not stabilise in the near future, this could have a negative impact on transport, business and economic activity in many regions of Russia.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u041f\u0430\u043b\u0438\u0432\u043d\u0430 \u043a\u0440\u0438\u0437\u0430 \u043e\u0445\u043e\u043f\u0438\u043b\u0430
