Breaking News: Fuel Crisis Hits Pakistan Amid Escalating Middle East War

The ongoing Middle East war is now having a serious impact on Pakistan, where a major fuel crisis has emerged. Reports indicate that many petrol pumps across the country have been shut down due to shortages of petrol and diesel. In areas where fuel is still available, prices have surged sharply, with an increase of nearly ₹55 in just one day. The shortage has been reported in several regions, including Balochistan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Punjab, and Sindh. Long queues of people have been seen outside petrol pumps, but many stations have no fuel available. The disruption in oil supply has caused panic among citizens, with people struggling to obtain petrol and diesel for daily use. The crisis has also led to tensions in some areas. In Sialkot, reports say that gunfire broke out after petrol ran out at a fuel station, highlighting the growing frustration among the public. Experts say the fuel shortage is linked to the wider instability in the region as the war involving Iran continues to affect global energy supply chains.
