LPG cylinders are seen at a distribution center amid a cooking gas shortage in Kathmandu, Nepal, on March 13, 2026. The Nepal Oil Corporation (NOC) distributes 7.1 kg cylinders to reach more households and curb hoarding. Long queues form as people wait for hours, and while many manage to receive the half-filled cylinders, shortages persist for others.

A lengthy line of vehicles, predominantly motorcycles, queues outside a gas station (SPBU) in North Sumatra, Indonesia, on november 30, 2025. The crisis, occurring three days after a devastating hydrometeorological disaster, severely hampers the regional fuel supply chain. Distribution delays, coupled with a surge in demand from affected communities and fear-driven panic buying, create widespread shortages. Authorities address allegations of illegal fuel hoarding that exploits the post-disaster hardship and makes recovery difficult for local residents.
