Russian oil company “Rosneft” is limiting fuel purchases at filling stations across the country amid disruption to the oil-refining sector caused by Ukrainian drone attacks, authorities in Russia’s Zabaykalsky region said, according to Anadolu Agency.
“Rosneft” is introducing restrictions in all regions, with limits of 30 litres in cities and 50 litres on highways, the region’s Economic Development Ministry said on the Russian social media platform “Max”.
In Zabaykalsky, the limit is 50 litres, and fuel sales in canisters are prohibited, the ministry said.
Authorities in the Republic of Buryatia and the Republic of Karelia have also reported restrictions at “Rosneft” filling stations.
Media outlets have reported similar measures in the Arkhangelsk, Penza and Novosibirsk regions, as well as in the city of Krasnoyarsk.
The restrictions come amid continued Ukrainian drone attacks on Russian oil refineries, which have disrupted domestic fuel production and supply.
