Rising gas prices across the US reach a 4-year high of $3.54 per gallon, an increase of 19% since recent attacks on Iran, impacting drivers nationwide.
Drivers in the United States are facing the highest gas prices since 2024, with the national average reaching $3.54 per gallon. This represents a significant 19% increase in fuel costs since the recent attacks on Iran, a major global oil producer.
The spike in gas prices is being felt across the country, as the cost of filling up a typical passenger vehicle has risen by nearly $10 compared to just a few weeks ago. Analysts attribute this sharp increase to the heightened tensions in the Middle East, which have disrupted global oil supply and caused market volatility.
