  1. The fuel shortage is just starting ,

    Ukraine’s sanctions are working

    Slava Ukraine

  4. So how much is the black market fuel price? With queues like that the infrastructure workers would have to be born yesterday to sell more than a drop the official way. I bet almost all gets stolen and sold underhand, the good old soviet way.

  5. I bet these orcs are struggling to understand why this is happening to them.

  7. Perfect for a roadside picnic, a family day out to the petrol station. This is what it looks like when Russia’s winning, btw, according to the Kremlin stooges. LMAO

  8. More Ukrainian drones are almost certainly coming to Russia.

    Winter is inevitably coming to Russia.

    It’s annoying to sit in a car for hours creeping towards a fuel pump while it’s summer or autumn; it’s life-threatening to try that in the middle of a Russian winter.

  9. This is the way, shut there entire empire down one gas station at a time

  10. Considering russian mentality for “patience and neighbourly love”, how long it’s gonna take before those gas stations turns into free-for-all fighting arenas? Winner gets the gas…

  14. The best part is, that this is just the start. u
    Ukraine have first been able to create this amount of drones, this year.
    Just think how next year is gonna look like.

  15. I share their pain. A couple of weeks ago, I had to wait a minute so the guy in front of me at the pump could finish. It was  brutal.

    Hahaha. Fuck the orcs.

    Slave Ukraine!

  17. It’s nothing. It’s just because I’m back from vacation 😀

    /S

  21. One of the repeated phrases that I heard from vox pop interviews in Russia was ‘we live well’. At least in Moscow and SPB. Pro-Putinists were comparing their lives now with the shit that was happening at the end of the USSR and in the aftermath during the 1990s.

    Well, it’s starting to be the case that ‘living well’ is not something that can be said with any seriousness by a lot of people. Creeping fuel shortages, endless queues for petrol, being kept awake night after night by anti-aircraft fire and drone explosions, the ever expanding cemeteries and ever lengthening lists of ‘missing’ soldiers, the smoke rising from the refineries on the edge of town, the failure to achieve any significant victories at the front….here’s hoping that the ‘slowly, then suddenly’ transition point is just around the corner.

  22. All lined up in their western and Japanese cars…… fucking muppets!

  25. I Didn’t hear anything from Putin about those shortages. Anyone?

  27. This is tangential, but I find it hilarious how vulnerable a car-centric society is to this kind of warfare.

    Turns out when you have to drive for 10 minutes to get to the corner store, gas is super important!
