Fuel shock from Ukraine strikes rattles Russia’s economy

Ukraine's drone strikes on Russian refineries have sparked a fuel crisis that’s fueling inflation, slowing industry, and pushing Russia toward GDP stagnation. June inflation reached about 10.6%, with analysts warning the hit could be a temporary spike if refinery capacity recovers; forecasts push end-2026 inflation to around 6.2% and keep the policy rate near 14%+. Monetary policy can't directly fix a fuel shortage, so the government must normalize the fuel market. Debt with floating rates burdens non-military firms, while refinery and oil output declines weigh on industrial production. The scale of damage depends on how long strikes last; a prolonged shortage could even push Russia toward rationing and mobilization economics, with broad civilian impact.

Moscow Braces for Fuel Shortages as Ukrainian Drone Attacks Hit Russian Refineries

Ukrainian drone strikes on Russia’s oil infrastructure have forced refinery shutdowns, notably Gazprom Neft’s Moscow plant, removing about 600,000 barrels per day from domestic refining and risking a 28% seasonal capacity drop. Moscow is enforcing fuel rationing, prices are rising, and Russia is importing gasoline from Asia while considering regulatory changes and an end-of-July export ban to redirect inventories and bolster state needs.
