The government of Ukraine has banned the export of key fuels, according to a resolution published on the website of the Cabinet of Ministers.

The banned items include liquid fuel and natural gas of Ukrainian origin as well as coal, anthracite, briquettes, pellets, and similar solid fuels derived from coal, except coking coal. The ban comes due to the “armed aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine and the imposition of martial law in Ukraine,” the June 10 resolution states.
