European Fuel Prices Soar Post-Iran Strikes

European fuel prices soar post-Iran strikes, with petrol up 12% and diesel surging 26% on average. Countries like Belgium, Czechia, and Bulgaria see petrol spikes of 22% each, while France leads the big four economies with 18% and Germany at 15%. Diesel surges are wilder, with Bulgaria up 43%, France at 36%, and Spain hitting 27%. Drivers across the continent feel the pinch, especially in places where taxes already take up most of the pump price. Prices started creeping up before the strikes, peaking in early April with diesel over €2.10, then dipped a bit post-ceasefire but remain far from normal. With the fragile truce in play, more price bumps could be ahead if tensions flare, affecting wallets from Lisbon to Helsinki. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
