Germany declares natural-gas shortage after Russia throttled its supply over the Ukraine war

Germany declared a natural-gas shortage on Thursday after Russia throttled its supply over the invasion of Ukraine.

Robert Habeck, the country's minister for economic affairs, told a press conference that the government was moving into the second phase of its three-stage emergency plan for natural gas supplies.

The third and highest stage would see the government allocating gas to certain sectors.

Households should be protected for as long as possible, while industry would have to put up with shortages, the government said, according to the German TV network Tagesschau.
