Tatneft Caps Fuel Sales Across Russia After Drone Strike Hit Refineries
TL;DR
Tatneft has imposed caps on gasoline and diesel purchases at about 800 stations nationwide following Ukrainian drone strikes on its refineries, with regional limits such as 30 L gasoline/60 L diesel in Chelyabinsk and 20 L gasoline/40 L diesel in southern Moscow; the Taneco refinery in Nizhnekamsk reportedly halted operations after the strike, and Tatneft’s shares fell over 3% as authorities attribute shortages to drone attacks and coordinate an industry-wide response to stabilize energy supplies.
