Tripoli fuel stations face congestion amid possible shortages
Gas stations in Tripoli are experiencing a noticeable crowding due to a temporary surge in demand, not because of a shortage of supplies. This came after the fire at the Zawia oil depot, which led to a partial halt in distribution operations, raising concerns among citizens and increasing congestion. The relevant companies confirmed that stocks are available and that supply operations are ongoing, with significant quantities of gasoline stored in Tripoli's warehouses and ships unloading their cargos at sea. Meanwhile, authorities are working to organize distribution and reduce pressure on the stations. The current focus is on maintaining stable supplies and preventing the temporary congestion from turning into an actual crisis, as 80% of fuel supplies arrive through the Tripoli port, and 20% come from Zawia refinery. There are assurances of sufficient reserves to meet the expected demand.
