Caption: Russia Halts Diesel Exports After Ukrainian Drone Strikes Disrupt Fuel Supplies. Russia has banned diesel exports to boost domestic fuel supplies following sustained Ukrainian drone attacks on key oil refineries. The restrictions come as fuel shortages worsen, with long queues forming at filling stations and prices rising nationwide. Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said the export ban will remain effective through July, while Russia prepares fuel imports. Moscow blamed Ukraine for targeting critical energy infrastructure, while Kyiv says the strikes aim to weaken Russia's war capabilities. The announcement immediately pushed European diesel prices higher, as traders anticipated tighter global supplies and stronger international competition. Major buyers including Turkey and Brazil now face reduced Russian exports, while Europe searches for alternative diesel suppliers worldwide.
