Donetsk residents demanded additional measures from the authorities to reduce queues at gas stations.

Governor Yuri Slyusar instructed to involve volunteers and Cossacks in duty at gas stations, as well as to organize informing drivers about the availability of fuel and the operating hours of the stations. Residents of the Rostov region, commenting on his instructions in Telegram, suggested introducing an electronic queue, abandoning nighttime closures of gas stations, and opening additional cash registers.

As reported by "Caucasian Knot", on July 11, it became known that a limit on fuel sales at gas stations was introduced in the Rostov region. An individual can purchase no more than 30 liters of gasoline for one vehicle.

Governor of the Rostov region Yuri Slyusar reported in his Telegram channel that he instructed to involve volunteers and Cossacks in duty at gas stations to ensure order. He also instructed to adjust the photo and video recording cameras in front of the gas stations so that people do not receive fines while they are waiting in line, and to organize informing people at the gas stations about the availability of fuel and the intervals of operation.

This post in Yuri Slyusar's Telegram channel, which has more than 166 thousand subscribers, received 402 reactions and 239 comments by 14:35 MSK.

Some authors of the comments demanded effective measures to reduce queues at gas stations. "Make it possible to refuel by license plates... A lot of options," wrote Igor.

"An electronic queue – and then there will be no disputes at these gas stations," believes Ekaterina.

"Agree to allow gas stations to pour either 20-30 liters into a canister or into the car's tank," suggested Spartak.

In the comments, there were repeated requests to abandon nighttime closures of gas stations. "What is being done to ensure that gas stations operate at night? Why are they closed?" wrote user ec_ten.

"I can't understand why nighttime gasoline sales were stopped," noted Yuri.

"Don't close gas stations at night, and the queues will be shorter," believes Vyacheslav.

Many users noted that it is the lack of information that creates additional queues. "The priority is to inform people about the availability of fuel types and the operating schedule of gas stations," emphasized Texas.

"All types of fuel are lit on the display, but in fact, there is only diesel," wrote Galina.

"Rosneft" displays all types of fuel with prices on the board, but in fact, only diesel," noted a user with the nickname BPL.

Users also debated the reasons for the formation of queues at gas stations. "The queue is created at the cash register itself. For some reason, they do not open two or three cash registers," believes Paul.

"Why is there only one cashier working at the operating gas stations?" asked Pavel.

"Some have to pay twice due to the 20-liter limit," pointed out Galina in another comment.

Recall that the fuel problem arose against the backdrop of attacks on oil refineries, including those located in southern Russia. Thus, on June 10, a fire occurred at the refinery in the village of Afipsky. On June 5, an oil depot in Ust-Labinsk caught fire, requiring the evacuation of residents of nearby houses. On June 2, a fire broke out at the oil refinery in the village of Ilsk in the Seversky district as a result of a drone attack. The fire was extinguished the same day.
