Muscovites stand in line for an hour to buy gasoline. Photos
You still need to look for an open gas station. Refuelers prohibit filming: “This is a special object!”
The Ukrainian Armed Forces continue to attack Russian oil refineries. The fuel crisis has affected most regions, including Moscow. The Bereg cooperative of independent journalists released a photo report from the capital, where drivers sometimes wait for about an hour for their turn at gas stations. Meduza publishes this material in its entirety.
In recent days, there have been long queues at gas stations - except for those that only offer diesel. Gas station employees prohibit filming: “This is a special object, filming only with permission!” Almost all Lukoil gas stations are either closed or sell only diesel. Neftmagistral gas stations have gasoline, but not all types. A few Gazprom gas stations are open, but they don’t have 92-grade gasoline, or only diesel. Teboil has gasoline, but only 20 liters per customer. The best situation is with Rosneft: many gas stations have gasoline, and customers are given 50 liters. However, there is often no or very little 92nd. However, even Rosneft gas stations often close for at least an hour while waiting for gasoline. When gas stations close, drivers continue to stand in line and wait for gas. Drivers complain that the news is silent about problems with gasoline in the capital.
