A government resolution issued on Monday, June 13, 2022, included coal, fuel oil, and domestically produced gas on a list of commodities prohibited from export during wartime.

It said this was connected to "the armed aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine and the imposition of martial law in Ukraine."
