EU fuel prices hit records as ECB experts see diesel margins peak in October Euronews
BREAKING: France is running out of fuel. 11% of France’s stations nationwide are now out of petrol or diesel, one in nine, with 16% of stations short in Grand Est, 15% in Pays de la Loire, 14% in Occitanie, and 13% in Centre-Val de Loire, per government figures published this morning.
The official count only registers a station as short if it has no petrol at all or no diesel at all, so a station out of one grade but holding another is not counted, meaning the real shortage is much larger. French diesel averages €2.406 a litre, about $10.45 a gallon.
Europe is facing its worst energy crisis in history.

Iran War. Note the Saudi-Ansar Allah conflict is under this header, even though Ansar Allah is an independent actor, because from the perspective of the US and the Gulf States, both campaigns dovetail to increase pressure on them.
Iran’s terms to re-engage in talks conveyed to US: Rezaei Mehr News. Note: “The actions taken by the US and Israel could justify our withdrawal from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT). We have not yet decided to withdraw from the NPT; that depends on Washington’s behaviour”
