Russia to ban gasoline exports for 6 months - Lemmy.World

So those strikes on refineries and depots starts to work :-) ?
Also planting season means a looooot of gasoline usage by farm equipment.
Did the author just lazily substitute “gasoline” for “fuel”, or is it really specifically a ban on gasoline? I cannot find out exactly what it is. Because farm equipment generally runs on diesel, not gasoline, so that would have less of an impact, if it’s really specifically only about gasoline.

Oil refining is barely limping along in Russia. It was always a weakness, but they don't have the ability to repair and maintain the refineries anymore. No parts, no skilled people.

Almost all the people who had the skills to do the repairs have either fled the country or died in Ukraine.
