Iraqis waiting in long queues due to oil shortage

Although ten-liter fuel costed only one dolar before US-led occupying, the people of Basra have to pay 2 dollars to black marketeers for only one liter fuel in these days. Lack of oil results in long queues before filling stations.
Meanwhile, it is reported that British troops located in southern Iraq cannot completely prevent illegal fuel selling and the actual reason of lack of oil is that produced oil mostly is exported to foreign markets.
Residents waiting on queues complained about high prices and demanded an urgent solution.
