Consider what patches are - high strength contact adhesive and small pieces of shaped inner tube.
If you can’t find anything else at all, sacrifice one inner tube to cut patches. Try to find Bostik or similar contact adhesive and a bit of sandpaper to scuff the surfaces.
Lemon sucking - Double check your tyre for recurring punctures, embedded glass etc.
Consider a tyre boot as per ^ use duct tape around the inside of the tyre as added puncture protection strip, unless you can find something stronger that will seat in the well.
Double check your rim tape isn’t the problem with a spoke poking through.

I’m in Albania and had a horrific day with punctures yesterday. All three of my spare tubes are gone and I don’t have patches. I’m about to search the small town I’m in, but may not find the right size tubes or a repair kit.
Are there any potential bodges I could use? Don’t think packing the tube with grass will fly on a 700x25.
