Iran faces fuel shortages with daily deficit of 15 million liters
Field reports indicate that Iran is still experiencing a fuel crisis. Iranian cities are facing long queues at gas stations due to a daily shortage of about 15 million liters of gasoline, approximately four million gallons per day. This crisis leads to hours-long waits, gas stations halting operations once their stocks run out, and truck drivers suffering from increased maintenance and insurance costs due to these stoppages. The decline in production and imports is attributed to the effects of war, sanctions, and the blockade imposed on Iran. The government is closely monitoring fuel quality amidst threats of contaminated materials leaking at certain stations. To boost revenue amid financial and economic pressures, the government is moving toward raising fuel prices. Meanwhile, citizens are increasingly relying on public transportation, and purchasing power continues to decline, exacerbating the crisis further.
