Panic buying of fuel is not helping the tenuous supply situation - especially in Gauteng and KwaZulu-Natal.

The Fuel Retailers’ Association’s Reggie Sibiya has confirmed that hundreds of service stations have run out, while many are not reporting their situation for fear of intimidation.

Sibiya says they will be meeting daily with government from now on to report on the situation. He adds that the countrywide strike has caused businesses and the economy to bleed.
