כיצד השפיעה המלחמה באוקראינה על מחירי הדלק?

Initial Supply Shock

Russia supplied roughly 10 percent of global oil before the invasion. Western sanctions and logistics disruptions removed substantial barrels from markets, forcing refiners to source from costlier suppliers. European natural gas prices tripled in 2022 as Russian pipeline flows ceased.

Ongoing Fuel Scarcity

Persistent Ukrainian attacks on Russian energy infrastructure have kept supply disrupted. Recent reporting documents that Russians are now purchasing Chinese electric vehicles as Ukrainian strikes make fuel scarce in Russia. This reflects how sustained conflict continues creating fuel availability problems across the region, though global markets have largely rebalanced away from Russian energy dependence.
