In Crimea, the occupiers limited the sale of gasoline to 20 liters per day

The occupation authorities of Crimea have imposed restrictions on the sale of AI-95 gasoline. The decision came into force at 09:00 on May 30.

This was reported by Krym.Realii with reference to the governor of the temporarily occupied Crimea Sergey Aksyonov.

According to him, from now on, drivers are allowed to sell no more than 20 liters of AI-95 gasoline to one person once a day. At the same time, residents were urged not to buy fuel for future use and to refuel their vehicles as usual.

Such restrictions were introduced in Crimea following Sevastopol, where similar rules have been in place since May 21. In addition, prices for various types of fuel have been rising at gas stations there.

At the same time, Ukrainian telegram channels are spreading videos of drivers in occupied Crimea complaining about the lack of gasoline and difficulties with refueling their cars.

The occupation authorities claim that fuel is available at gas stations, but some gas stations operate mainly on coupons.

On the night of May 30, operators of the Unmanned Systems Forces conducted a series of strikes on enemy fuel infrastructure facilities in the temporarily occupied Crimea aimed at weakening its logistics capabilities and providing troops with fuel.

As a reminder, fuel prices continue to rise in the temporarily occupied Crimea. On the eve of May 9, the price of A-95 gasoline at some gas stations exceeded 80 rubles per liter.

Meanwhile, on April 1, the Russian government imposed a ban on gasoline exports to keep prices down in the country. Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said that the domestic market is provided with fuel, but admitted that amid the conflict in the Middle East, exports of petroleum products have become more profitable.

Global oil prices have also risen significantly. According to international agencies, Russian Urals oil has risen to its highest price in more than a decade, to more than $110 per barrel.

Also, since the beginning of March, Odesa and the rest of Ukraine have seen a sharp rise in the price of all types of fuel.
