Gas prices in UK and Europe soar after strikes on energy facilities in Qatar and Iran | BBC News
The price of gas has risen sharply in the UK and Europe following an attack on Qatar’s Ras Laffan energy complex.
Gas prices jumped by about 25% on wholesale markets in the UK and Europe in early trading, before easing slightly.
The price of gas in Europe is more than double the level seen before the US-Israeli war with Iran began.
Oil is also trading higher, with Brent crude jumping 10% to above $119 a barrel at one point, before slipping back.

Trump does nothing to help Ukraine or help EU to help Ukraine, he just fleeces Europe for overpriced weapons at a %10 mark up.
If he wants help with Iran he can pay up I’d say 1 billion per day plus 10% for 1 EU or British ship in the waters near Iran.
We should help Ukraine and not the rest of Europe
From $37K to $65K that's the minimum range of profit return every month I think it's not a bad one for me, now I have enough to pay bills.
I think this is great. It will speed up our transmission to renewables and it may convince the stupiest american voter that TACO is an idiot.
Britain has caused this by allowing US bombers to use its bases, unhinged madness
Neville Chamberlain is that you???? 😂
Trump – Good for Europe!!! 😂
Thank you US and Israel. Now you can go on with YOUR war until the end. On your own.
nonsense
Dumb president & dumber iran
If you believe in so called international law, how do you make provoking countries like Russia and Iran conform? You can’t. Iran has stepped outside and the world’s policeman (the USA) is doing something about it after too many years of toleration, and in the face of increased risk of the combination of nuclear materiales and long range missiles from a thug set of religious nutters. Whether the BBC or Spain don’t like it is of little relevance.
Iran never threatened Europe with nuclear weapons, that’s why they don’t want to get involved…
This is why Russia invaded Ukraine. THIS IS EXACTLY WHY RUSSIA INVADED UKRAINE. Weak and selfish Europeans
That is some top tier diplomacy Spain.
Good. Iran…….
Now Trump would have realized that threat to USA is from Isreal
We are already paying high prices for gas since the US blew up Nord stream pipeline 2. US and Israel are the terrorists
All thanks to the US of A and Israel.
Israel dont care. All because they want to expand and annex
Time to dump the BBC tax to help with the cost of living
