Fuel supply across the country, particularly in the capital city, remains normal despite the impacts of ongoing global conflicts.

Following concerns raised on social media regarding potential fuel rationing, this newsroom conducted an assessment across the city and confirmed that supply operations are running as usual.

A manager from Mobil, speaking on the condition of anonymity, assured the public and their commercial clients that no rationing will take place, affirming that current fuel supplies are sufficient for the next few weeks. The manager added that customers will be notified accordingly if the situation changes.

Both Puma and TotalEnergies service stations provided similar responses, confirming that their operations also remain unaffected for the time being.
