Quote: "From 31 May, the supply of A-95 petrol in the Republic of Crimea will be prioritised for public and community transport, as well as rationed with coupons, without volume restrictions. Meanwhile, the sale of A-95 petrol at ATAN and TES filling stations will be carried out exclusively by coupons.

Due to limited stocks of A-92 petrol, restrictions on its retail sale will also be introduced from 31 May: no more than 20 litres per vehicle. The filling of jerry cans is prohibited."

Details: Aksyonov said that the situation is expected to return to normal within 30 days.

He also urged residents to monitor updated information on petrol station locations where fuel is available.

Background: Earlier, Aksyonov announced that from 30 May, sales of A-95 petrol across Crimea would be limited to 20 litres per person per day.
