By the Numbers
Following the US attacks on Iran and Iran's closure of the Strait of Hormuz, energy prices are experiencing a rapid increase. With the growing regional tensions, the barrel price of Brent crude oil exceeded the 100-dollar limit, continuing its strong upward trend.
The military escalation in the Gulf region and the blockades at key energy straits directly affect global oil markets. The blockade initiated by the Houthis in Yemen against Saudi Arabia in the Bab el-Mandeb Strait has further heightened concerns over supply sources.
In light of these developments, new price hikes have begun to occur consecutively for fuel prices in Turkey. Following the price hike made to gasoline prices yesterday, a significant increase will be applied to diesel prices starting from midnight tonight.
