Presidential chief of staff Kang Hoon-sik announced that South Korea has secured 273 million barrels of crude oil and 2.1 million tons of naphtha by year-end from four nations: Oman, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Kazakhstan. The volumes equate to more than three months of oil and one month of naphtha based on last year's consumption. The supplies will be shipped via alternative routes avoiding the blockaded Strait of Hormuz.
The Kenyan government has raised concerns over potential fuel price increases next month due to ongoing disruptions in the Red Sea and Middle East tensions affecting global oil supplies.
