MOSCOW, September 30. /TASS/. The Russian government has extended its temporary ban on exports of certain fuel types by direct producers, the cabinet's press service announced.
"A decree has been signed extending the ban on exports of diesel, marine fuel, and gas oils by their direct manufacturers from Russian territory through October 31, 2026, inclusive," the statement said.
