Fuel sales restrictions continue in about 20 regions across Russia, primarily in the capital Moscow and St. Petersburg.
Some gas stations apply a 20-liter limit on gasoline and diesel sales. Drivers sometimes have to wait in long queues.
Russian officials say excessive demand in the market is artificially increasing consumption. Despite this, the average price of gasoline in the country rose by 3 percent in the past week.
While restrictions continue in regions extending to Eastern Siberia, some regional administrations are signaling normalization in fuel supply.
Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak announced that there is sufficient fuel volume to meet domestic market needs.
The Russian government is considering imposing a ban on diesel exports to support the domestic market. However, according to Russian media, such a decision has been postponed for now.
Due to attacks by Ukrainian drones on Russian oil refineries, many facilities have been shut down for maintenance. The Russian government also periodically resorts to export restrictions.
