At gas stations in Volgograd, especially in the city center, there is again a surge in demand for gasoline, which is not available everywhere, local residents reported.

As reported by "Caucasian Knot" on September 17, the authorities of the Volgograd region reported a gradual stabilization of the fuel situation in the region. However, residents of the region noted that only at some gas stations can they refuel without queues or after a short wait.

On October 2, Volgograd residents again complained about the surge in demand for fuel at city gas stations, especially in the center, writes v1.ru. The publication links the increase in fuel demand to a drone attack in the southern part of the city.

On October 1, as reported by local authorities, a fire occurred in an apartment building on Udmurt Street in the Krasnoarmeysky district of Volgograd due to a drone attack on "industrial infrastructure". One person was injured.

The publication provides comments from Volgograd residents who report "wild queues" at gas stations on Zhukov Avenue, near the oncology center, and at the elevator in the Voroshilovsky district. They also added that there is no fuel at some gas stations, particularly at "Lukoil" on Parkhomenko Street. "I couldn't refuel yesterday, everywhere is empty," one commenter described the situation.

However, some commenters clarified that fuel problems are mainly observed in the city center.

Commenting on the publication on the website, residents of Volgograd also reported issues with fuel availability at some gas stations. "I passed three "Lukoil" stations at 3 PM, there was no 95 gasoline and fuel cards were not working," wrote one commenter. Another Volgograd resident listed gas stations where there was also no fuel: "in Kirovsky in the morning at 503m "Gazprom" there was no fuel, at Parknikov "Lukoil" there was no fuel, "Rosneft" at Vtorcheremet there was no fuel." Another commenter noted that on the afternoon of October 2, "along the Second Longitudinal (and a bit of the First) from Spartakovka to the oncology center - there is no gasoline at any gas station, only diesel."

Some commenters, however, as noted by the publication, believed that the surge is related to the actions of the drivers themselves. "Stop raising panic and standing like idiots in queues for five liters," one of them stated.

In the publication's Telegram channel under the news about the increase in fuel demand, only two comments were left. "Empty gas stations," lamented Valeriy Sulaev. "If you hadn't written about the problems at gas stations, there wouldn't be any panic at all," believes Andrey.

According to the data from the service "Where is GAS" on October 2, at "Lukoil" gas stations there was no fuel or only diesel fuel was sold, while at "Gazpromneft" gas stations fuel was available, but in some places it was only diesel.
