Gas stations in Novorossiysk have completely run out of gasoline
On July 3, all gas stations in Novorossiysk, Krasnodar Krai, Russia, ran out of gasoline. This was reported by the Municipal Control Center (MCC) of the city administration, which noted that “at this time, there is no gasoline available at gas stations.”
During the fuel crisis, city authorities launched an online map showing fuel availability at gas stations. As of July 3, it indicated that gasoline was unavailable at all gas stations in the city, while only diesel fuel remained in stock.
According to local media reports, it is impossible to purchase gasoline on the open market. At the same time, refueling vehicles using fuel cards issued by companies to their employees continues.
Fuel supply problems in Novorossiysk have persisted since June 10. In early July, city residents were forced to wait in line for hours at the few gas stations that still had gasoline in stock.
Local residents also report that due to the fuel shortage, public transportation has stopped using air conditioning, taxi fares have risen, and the number of cars on the roads has noticeably decreased.
As a reminder, the fuel crisis in Russia is worsening: gasoline is disappearing from gas stations and lines are growing longer.
Russia has allowed the use of lower-quality gasoline due to the fuel crisis.
