Fuel Shortages Worsen Across Russia Amid Escalating Ukrainian Drone Attacks

A significant fuel crisis is unfolding in nearly all of Russia's 83 regions, driven by intensified Ukrainian drone strikes targeting oil refineries. The situation, which began with a state of emergency in Crimea on June 21, has led to gasoline shortages and rationing, with over 50 regions officially reporting supply issues. Russian President Vladimir Putin acknowledged the challenges, claiming shortages are not critical, yet experts indicate production is about 20% below domestic demand.
