Ukrainian Drone Attacks Trigger Fuel Shortages Across Russia, Gas Stations Impose Sales Limits on July 2

According to Yonhapnews, Ukrainian drone attacks on Russian refineries have caused widespread fuel shortages across Russia, with gas stations implementing sales restrictions and facing long queues on July 2. Citizens reported waiting hours without securing fuel, with some stations limiting purchases to 10–30 liters, while prices surged sharply across affected regions.

Social media videos showed frustrated residents expressing anger and despair over the shortage, with one woman in tears after waiting two hours without fuel and a man objecting to the per-purchase limit.
