Gas Prices Top $4 a Gallon Again Amid US-Iran Tensions
The average price for a gallon of gasoline in the U.S. has risen above $4 again, reaching $4.0030, up from $3.8720 a week ago, according to AAA. The increase follows a surge in oil prices driven by escalating military conflict between the U.S. and Iran, with Brent crude futures briefly topping $90 a barrel. Prices vary significantly by state, with California averaging $5.50 per gallon and Alaska around $4.65. Diesel fuel has also risen sharply, costing $5.1080 per gallon on average, up from $4.8750 last week, adding further inflationary pressure on transportation and logistics.
