What happened
Residents of Tura, a remote town in Siberia, are experiencing severe food shortages and high prices for necessities such as potatoes, cabbage, eggs, and milk. Authorities have begun limiting quantities, allowing no more than 1 kilogram per person. The shortages are attributed to logistical challenges, though the nearly five-year full-scale war has also taken a heavy toll on the town's economy and population.
