Russia Cuts Fuel Sales to Public in Crimea

June 21 (UPI) -- The Russian government on Sunday halted fuel sales to civilians and businesses not considered vital to functioning and security in Crimea.

Sergey Aksyonov, the governor of Crimea, announced people would be turned away from gas stations amid a fuel shortage and logistical difficulties related to the war with Ukraine, the BBC reported.

"Further decisions regarding the current situation in the republic's fuel market will be announced at a later date," he said in a post on Telegram.

The announcement came amid new attacks by Ukraine on energy and transportation infrastructure on the Crimean Peninsula, Politico reported. Russia illegally annexed the peninsula from Ukraine in 2014, and it has been at the center of fighting between the two countries ever since.

Ukraine has repeatedly targeted Russia's energy supply in an effort to hobble its defenses and ability to transport troops and machinery. Fuel facilities in the Kerch Strait in Russia's Krasnodar region have also been attacked.

Funny how they skew what is happening in the title. Cuts and halts are two different things

I am so glad the Ukrainians finally started hitting Russian oil infrastructure.

I had been saying from day 1 that is what they needed to do.

It would have been more effective if they hit all the vodka distilleries.

Today, no gasoline for the public in Crimea.

Tomorrow, no gasoline for the public in all of Russia.

The results of Putin’s “special military operation” are coming home to roost.
