Crisis in Russia: Fuel Shortages, Humanitarian Issues, and US Response. Support for Ukraine Through Donations


Russia faces fuel shortages and humanitarian crisis in occupied territories, while support for Ukraine grows amid US debates.

In recent days, Russia has been experiencing a fuel crisis, with drone attacks on refineries causing shortages of various gasoline grades, especially 95 and 92 octane. There are also significant fuel supply disruptions in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine, particularly in Crimea and Zaporizhzhia.

Russians are complaining about long queues at gas stations, high prices, and an inability to fill their cars. These issues stem from ongoing military actions, sanctions, and attacks on logistics and energy infrastructure.

In the Donetsk region, temporarily controlled by Russian forces, the population still suffers from lack of water. Residents have to stand in lines or seek alternative sources.

Meanwhile, the United States refrains from supplying Ukraine with long-range missiles, though American politicians are discussing the advisability of striking Russian territory. Commenting on the situation, Donald Trump said the war could be avoided by hitting the aggressor, and claimed such a conflict would not have happened during his presidency.

Ukrainian forces are receiving support in the form of donations for FPV drones, enabling precise attacks on enemy positions and reducing the operational capabilities of Russian troops.

Overall, fuel and humanitarian crises in Russia and the occupied territories are deepening, with public dissatisfaction growing. Ukrainian military continues to call for donations to support victory.
