How Will Attacks on Iran Affect Gas Prices? GasBuddy Weighs In
- Since June 13, missile and drone strikes have been launched between Israel and Iran, contributing to recent fluctuations in oil and gas prices.
- This conflict follows Israel's preemptive strike to dismantle Iran's nuclear program, raising concerns about targeting regional oil infrastructure.
- As a result, crude oil prices rose from $60 to about $75 a barrel since late May, pushing the national average gas price up by 9.7 cents to $3.18.
- Patrick De Haan of GasBuddy said gasoline prices could rise 7 to 15 cents more this week and diesel 10 to 20 cents, while dismissing exaggerated social media spike rumors.
- These developments suggest continued fuel price increases linked to Middle East instability but with forecasts subject to rapid change depending on global events.
