Fuel crisis paralyzes Kassala State as petrol stations shut doors

A severe fuel crisis has paralyzed Sudan’s Kassala State, plunging the region into sudden immobility as petrol stations abruptly closed doors.

Local residents told Al-Tayyar newspaper that station owners chose to cease operations despite holding significant undisclosed fuel reserves.

This deliberate withholding of resources has choked the local economy, causing a near-total collapse of public and private transportation.

Vital services across the state have ground to a halt, leaving communities stranded in the grip of artificial scarcity.

Shadows of uncertainty hang over Kassala as citizens navigate empty streets and silent engines, waiting for a government intervention.
