In at least three municipalities of Kuban, more than 50% of gas stations are closed.

In Krasnodar, Novorossiysk, and the Slavyansky District of Kuban, just over 46% of existing gas stations are operational. At some gas stations, purchases can only be made with fuel cards. There are also restrictions on the sale of gasoline - it cannot be poured into canisters, and the volume is limited when refueling the tank.

As reported by "Caucasian Knot", problems with train movement and gasoline in Crimea have led to an increase in tourist flow to Anapa, tour operators emphasized. It has also become difficult to buy gasoline in Anapa, a local blogger reported. Gasoline problems in Anapa may force people to abandon the idea of coming to the resort, commentators stated. Only part of the gas stations are operational in Krasnodar Krai, and at some of them, restrictions on sales have been introduced "by the decision of the owners," city and district authorities reported, including those of Novorossiysk, Sochi, and Gelendzhik.

As of June 29, there are 56 gas stations operating in Krasnodar. Available: AI-92 at 46 gas stations, AI-95 at 43 gas stations, AI-100 at 29 gas stations, diesel fuel at 47 gas stations.

At some gas stations, restrictions have been introduced by the owners - fuel is only poured into tanks.

Another 50 gas stations are temporarily not dispensing fuel, and 8 facilities are closed for repairs/rebranding, reported the Krasnodar MTC in its Telegram channel.

Several gas stations dispense fuel only with fuel cards, the city administration reported on its Telegram page.

In the Slavyansky District, only seven gas stations are operational. At all gas stations, restrictions have been introduced by the owners: fuel is dispensed only into fuel tanks and no more than 20 liters of gasoline or 60 liters of diesel fuel per vehicle.

According to Yandex Maps, there are 15 gas stations in the Slavyansky District.

Thus, in these three municipalities, 78 gas stations are operational, while 90 gas stations are closed for various reasons, meaning that out of a total of 168 gas stations, only 46.43% are operational, calculated the "Caucasian Knot".
