Fuel sales across Russian-controlled Crimea have been suspended as of Sunday morning, impacting both individual consumers and businesses. The halt includes all payment methods – cash, card, and vouchers. This follows a Ukrainian strike on an oil refinery located 2,000 kilometers away, reportedly impacting fuel supplies to the peninsula. Russian authorities have not officially confirmed the reason for the suspension, but the timing strongly suggests a connection to the attack. The move raises concerns about potential fuel shortages and disruptions to transportation within Crimea. The refinery strike represents a significant escalation in Ukraine’s efforts to disrupt Russia’s logistical capabilities and resource access in the occupied territories. Further details regarding the duration of the sales suspension remain unclear.
