In four Russian regions—Saratov, Volgograd, Krasnodar, and along the M-5 highway between Chelyabinsk and Yekaterinburg—government officials and emergency services are being served at gas stations without waiting in line. This practice involves prioritizing certain groups such as administrative staff, postal workers, and medical personnel.
Consensus
- Government employees and emergency services are given priority service at gas stations in four Russian regions: Saratov, Volgograd, Krasnodar, and along the M-5 highway between Chelyabinsk and Yekaterinburg.
- The practice occurs at Rosneft and Gazprom gas stations.
- There is a fuel shortage situation due to Ukrainian drone attacks on oil refineries.
Points of divergence
- In Saratov, only service vehicles of emergency services are served at one Rosneft station; the practice also includes administrative staff and MFC employees. — tvrain
- At a gas station in Volgograd, fuel is sold exclusively to those with special fuel cards paid for by local administration, hospitals, and police. — novaya_eu
- In Saratov, the service includes administrative staff from district administrations, MFC drivers, and Russia Post employees; no documents are checked at this station. — meduza
