Qatar Gas Terminal Blast Rocks Global Markets

A massive explosion at Qatar’s vital Ras Laffan gas terminal has left at least 54 injured and 18 missing, disrupting global energy flows and raising alarms as Qatar restarts operations after Iran eased its blockade of the Strait of Hormuz.

With ExxonMobil holding a stake and Qatar’s economy deeply tied to its shared gas fields with Iran, the fallout could ripple worldwide, especially as the country recovers from recent global events and seeks to maintain its energy dominance.
