What happened: Fuel tankers have been allowed back into an Irish oil refinery following demonstrations linked to high prices amid the US-Israeli conflict with Iran. The protests had disrupted traffic on multiple roads.
Why it matters:
- Restoring tanker access helps stabilise fuel supply in Ireland.
- Ongoing geopolitical tensions continue to impact fuel prices and transport.
MNN Take: Access to key fuel infrastructure is crucial for maintaining supply chains, especially during periods of international conflict that affect energy markets.
