Major oil refineries impose their own sanctions on Russia

Australia has announced further sanctions on Russia amid the war in Ukraine

The nation’s two remaining fuel refiners have banned making new orders for Russian fuel due to Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine.

Ampol and Viva Energy, which provide petrol to over 3000 service stations across the country, are both waiting on shipments of Russian oil to arrive in April…

Those shipments will be the last from Russia and will be accepted to avoid any potential shortages.
