UK authorities mobilize military amid fuel crisis

The British authorities put the military on high alert as part of an effort to resolve the fuel crisis. This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Business, Energy and Industry.

"British military tanker truck drivers will be put on standby to deliver fuel to where it is most needed and provide additional assurance that fuel supplies remain high," the statement said.

It is noted that military drivers will now undergo special training before being sent on a business trip, which will help them cope with "difficult circumstances in the supply chain."

The message also cites British Defense Secretary Ben Wallace as saying: "The men and women of our armed forces are ready to help reduce traffic levels where it's most felt." “Therefore, I authorized the military to be put on high alert,” he explained.
