What happened

Well supportedReported by 11 independent outlets

Donald Trump has repeatedly threatened military strikes against Iran. These threats, combined with fighting in the Middle East, have caused global oil prices to rise. Fuel oil and gasoline, for instance, spiked over 30% starting in March in response to the war in Iran and the closing of the Strait of Hormuz.
