Russia Hits Fuel Caps as Refinery Attacks Disrupt Supplies

TL;DR Summary
Gas stations across Moscow and northern Russia have begun limiting fuel purchases amid supply disruptions blamed on Ukrainian drone attacks on refineries. Lukoil is capping at 100 liters, Gazprom at 100–150 liters, ORTK at 60 liters for gasoline and 100 liters for diesel, and General Fueller at 20 liters at all sites, with similar caps reported in St. Petersburg and Karelia. Some regions, including Kaliningrad, have seen price increases, while officials say domestic supply remains stable and there is no nationwide shortage. Crimea has stricter controls with vouchers and caps continuing, reflecting broader regional strain on fuel supplies.
