Belgian diesel price hits 2.407 EUR/L, highest since April, amid Middle East conflict

Belgium's maximum diesel price (B7) rises 5.1 cents to 2.407 euros per liter on Friday, the first time above 2.4 euros since April, reflecting elevated petroleum product costs linked to the Middle East conflict. The record remains 2.489 euros from April 9. The increase signals sustained energy price pressure in Europe, with potential inflationary implications.
