Russian Domestic Fuel Shortages Intensify, Coinciding with Putin Approval Decline

Widespread fuel shortages are confirmed across over 90% of Russian regions, leading to rationing, multi-day queues, and at least three reported fatalities since late June.

The precise drivers of the fuel crisis (military consumption vs. refinery issues) and the full extent of public discontent remain unclear.
