US‑Iran tensions drive global fuel price spikes

Escalating hostilities between the United States and Iran have pushed Brent crude above $90 per barrel, triggering a wave of fuel price increases worldwide. In the United States, average gasoline rose past $4 per gallon for the first time since June, while diesel costs also climbed. European markets felt the strain as the Strait of Hormuz remained a chokepoint; analysts warned of record‑low diesel inventories and warned that prices could keep rising. Turkey saw a further diesel hike, with the litre price expected to exceed 75 Turkish lira after an announced 1.12 TL increase. Germany’s government announced no new relief measures as fuel prices surged following the conflict. Travel advisories were issued by the U.S. State Department, warning Americans abroad of possible retaliation linked to the tensions. Across the region, the price surge is feeding higher inflation and altering mobility habits, with Swiss respondents reporting reduced car use and a shift toward public transport and cycling. The combined effect of tighter oil supply routes and heightened geopolitical risk is inflating energy costs for consumers in multiple continents.
