Summary
Russia is considering fuel imports and price subsidies to address a worsening gasoline and diesel shortage caused by Ukrainian drone strikes on its oil refineries. The strikes have reduced gasoline output by 25%, triggered regional sales restrictions, and caused long lines at filling stations. For the world's third-largest crude oil producer, this marks a sharp reversal as Russia has also banned gasoline exports to manage the domestic supply crisis.
