## Resource

Gas prices are skyrocketing as Saudi Aramco cuts off crude shipments to Europe due to a drone strike crippling its key oil pipeline — a seven-million-barrel-per-day lifeline. With shipping routes like the Strait of Hormuz too risky, recovery could take weeks or even months, depending on pump repairs. The national average for gas hit $4.46, diesel at $6.44 — and in California, diesel’s at a jaw-dropping $8.39. This crisis is choking supply chains, impacting everything from ports to trucks, while 61% of voters now see high gas prices as a top concern — turning it into a major political headache ahead of the midterms.
