U.S. diesel climbs to $5.13 as Iran tensions tighten fuel markets

U. S. diesel prices jumped to $5. 13 per gallon after renewed U. S. -Iran hostilities disrupted oil flow through the Strait of Hormuz, Fox Business reported.

The same reporting noted that gasoline prices also rose above $4 per gallon, reflecting higher crude costs and constrained refining capacity. Earlier in the month, CBS said the national average for regular gasoline reached $4. 003 per gallon, while NBC and AP documented the price returning to the $4 level amid the same geopolitical tensions. CNN and OilPrice. com linked the price spikes to limited refinery margins and tight product markets, and the International Energy Agency warned that the clash could prolong the global energy crisis and hamper the recovery of oil supplies.
