Fuel shortages have resurfaced in at least six Russian regions, Russian officials and media outlets have reported, after Ukrainian attacks on at least eight major oil refineries in recent weeks raised the prospect of drivers once again having to queue for hours at petrol stations, Reuters<\/a> reports.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Ukraine has significantly stepped up its attacks on Russian oil refineries since October 30, accusing Russia of failing to honor the energy ceasefire between Kyiv and Moscow<\/a> announced by US President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n\n

In its latest attack, Ukraine struck Russia\u2019s second-largest oil refinery overnight in the northwestern city of Kirishi. The strike was reported by Alexander Drozdenko, the regional governor.<\/p>\n\n

Such attacks erode Russia\u2019s capacity to produce gasoline and diesel, fueling concerns over domestic fuel supplies and complicating the agreement between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Trump<\/a> on Russian diesel exports to international markets and the United States.<\/p>\n\n
