Russia imports gasoline from India due to shortages after Ukrainian strikes on refineries

Russia has started importing gasoline from India to alleviate fuel shortages caused by Ukrainian drone attacks on Russian oil refineries, according to industry sources cited by Reuters. At least 60,000 tons of gasoline have been sent from India to Russia via two tankers carrying between 30,000 to 40,000 tons each. Russia plans to import around 400,000 tons of gasoline monthly from various countries. Belarus is also a supplier, with rail deliveries increasing threefold compared to May. Daily gasoline consumption in Russia is at least 110,000 tons. The Kremlin acknowledged ongoing negotiations with other countries for fuel imports, while President Vladimir Putin stated that the attacks have caused shortages in some regions but that authorities are managing the situation. Meanwhile, India significantly increased its purchases of Russian crude oil, with Indian refineries receiving approximately 2.7 million barrels daily in June, making Russian oil over half of India’s total oil imports.
