While many service stations are dry, everywhere in France, ambulances remained in the garage on Monday in the Marne, for lack of fuel.

In Cernay-Lès-Reims, the Desruelle company can no longer use four of its vehicles;

reports Francetvinfo.

Result: interventions were canceled in the Reims region.

Because, if there are still operational ambulances within the company, they can quickly run out;

explains the director, Florent Lacroix, to France 3 Grand Est.

“We are canceling interventions and transfers beyond Reims.

Because, if we don't find diesel, they will probably be unable to return”;

he tells our colleagues.

The queue in the stations delays the interventions

The manager expects major difficulties during the week, especially as the search for fuel delays the services to the sick.

A meeting with the prefecture and the Regional Health Agency (ARS) must be held to consider the requisition of certain stations for professionals.
