On July 21, NGS24.RU reported that small queues of cars were gathering near gas stations that still had fuel. In Krasnoyarsk Krai, as in other Russian regions, a gasoline crisis has emerged due to drone attacks on refineries: fuel is rising in price, and some gas stations have already introduced limits on sales per customer.

In June, the average gasoline price in the region rose by 10% (74.06 rubles ($1) per liter). In May, before the crisis reached the region, the average gasoline price was 67.17 rubles ($1) per liter.
