Residents of the gas station country, in pursuit of fuel, have started fighting in queues at gas stations, setting up tents to sleep near the stations, and some "smart" Russians have begun drilling each other's tanks to steal gasoline from cars, reports UNN.

For example, near one of the gas stations in Russia, people set up tents and also placed a grill to cook food while waiting for gasoline.
Also in Omsk, where the largest oil refinery, which was hit by the Defense Forces, is located, queues at gas stations are observed.
Furthermore, at Russian gas stations, people have started fighting over fuel, and in Novorossiysk, people blocked the road of a fuel truck demanding to fill their cars.
In search of fuel, Russians have begun stealing it from each other. In particular, they drill car fuel tanks to drain the gasoline.
Russian media report that the most reports of fuel shortages are received from residents of Moscow and the Moscow region. Almost all of them indicate one trend: gas stations are closing en masse, with independent gas station chains suffering the most.
For the most part, fuel is sold at gas stations of companies close to the state: Rosneft, Gazprom. At private or small chain gas stations, there is no gasoline at all, or only one grade is available, usually expensive
It is also reported that the shortage has affected even the largest chains. Russians claim that among federal operators, gasoline is consistently available only at Rosneft gas stations
Muscovites claim that visually, queues of 30 to 50 cars are observed near gas stations.
