Gas Prices Soar Due to Iran Conflict

Skyrocketing Gas Prices: The Impact of US-Israeli Strikes on Iran

The US and Israeli strikes on Iran have led to a surge in gas prices across the United States. In Phoenix, regular unleaded is reaching as high as $4.19 per gallon, while diesel tops out at $4.49 at some stations. The lowest prices in the area show up at an Arco station, where gas goes for $3.53 per gallon. These increases are putting pressure on everyday drivers nationwide, with one driver reporting sky-high costs after a road trip from California. The conflict, known as Operation Epic Fury, has resulted in the deaths of seven American service members and the appointment of Mojtaba Khamenei as the new supreme leader of Iran. Experts worry that fuel costs could climb even higher with no end in sight to the war.
