Fights are breaking out at Russiaβs gas stations as the fuel crisis spreads
Russian media have been reporting on a surge of conflicts at gas stations across the country. The fuel crisis, triggered by Ukrainian drone strikes on Russian oil facilities, has forced people to wait for hours at gas stations. Some drivers try to cut the line, which has at times led to brawls. The situation is compounded by the fact that some stations have taken a liberal interpretation of the requirement to give priority to official vehicles. As a result, local officials in some regions have begun jumping the line, and in Chita, participants in Russiaβs invasion of Ukraine and their family members were added to the list of those exempt from waiting. All of this has fueled widespread public anger.
The linked article is citing incidents from the regions where the fuel shortage has led to conflicts.
