As Ukraine's military campaign against Russian energy infrastructure continues to disrupt fuel supplies, citizens in Kyiv are facing the consequences, with long queues forming at gas stations across the capital. The situation has become increasingly tense, with reports of fights breaking out among frustrated motorists. In a bid to restore order, Ukrainian authorities have deployed Cossacks - members of a traditional Ukrainian militia - to help maintain control and prevent further violence. The deployment is a rare sight in modern-day Ukraine, but highlights the severity of the fuel shortage crisis that has gripped the country in recent weeks.
