Iranian Vice President Mohammad Jafar Ghaempanah stated on Wednesday that the country is facing petrol shortages due to insufficient domestic production and an inability to import fuel. The official attributed these supply constraints to a US naval blockade, which he claims is preventing Iran from securing necessary imports to meet local demand.

Recent reports indicate that these shortages have resulted in long queues at petrol stations across Iran. The situation highlights the ongoing economic pressure on Tehran as the country struggles to balance internal energy needs against the impact of international restrictions.
