"Miracles" began happening at the gas station.
On August 11, Russian dictator Vladimir Putin embarked on a working trip to Novosibirsk—a city located 3,000 kilometers from Ukraine. Strict security measures were put in place there for his visit, and gasoline prices even dropped for a few hours, according to “Dialog”.
Residents of Novosibirsk noticed that while Putin was in town, fuel prices at local gas stations mysteriously dropped. At some stations, they even turned off the price displays and suspended gasoline sales. As soon as the Kremlin leader left the city, prices instantly jumped—by about 20 rubles.
The oddities surrounding gasoline weren’t the only ones. Patrols were stationed along the dictator’s entire route at intervals of nearly every 50 meters. Local residents were forbidden from approaching these roads, leaving their cars there, or even opening their windows or looking out of them. Those who did not comply with these “recommendations” were rudely chased away.
According to eyewitnesses, the city was gridlocked—with traffic jams rated at a level 10 on the congestion scale—due to the closure of key thoroughfares for Putin’s motorcade.
Against this backdrop, Kremlin propagandists circulated a clearly staged video—allegedly showing Putin “suddenly” deciding to stop and chat with a group of children near a closed gas station. In the video, the dictator approaches the crowd, hugs a boy, while armed soldiers in camouflage stand nearby.
