UAIn Russia, conflicts at gas stations have increased due to fuel shortages caused by Ukrainian drone strikes on Russian oil infrastructure. Reports indicate that drivers are spending hours waiting in line for gasoline, leading to frequent arguments, fights, and even weapon use. Some regions have implemented preferential treatment for specific groups, such as government officials and war participants, which has further fueled local discontent. Specific incidents include a man in Irkutsk who aggressively tried to cut in line and was confronted by police, resulting in a criminal case. In Saint Petersburg, a knife attack occurred during a dispute over a pump, while in Kaliningrad, three women fought over access to a fuel nozzle. Similar incidents were reported in Kursk and Kaluga, highlighting the growing tension at Russian gas stations.
