Last update: 36 minutes agoStrait-of-Hormuz shock hits India’s roads and wallets: With Iran–US tensions still snarling shipping, India’s fuel costs are climbing again—Mumbai saw higher CNG and transport unions, truckers and residents pushing for fare hikes, while petrol and diesel prices rose nationwide after the latest crude jump. Energy security deal-making: On Modi’s UAE stopover, Abu Dhabi agreed to expand India’s strategic oil storage—up to 30 million barrels in India’s reserve—plus gas and LPG arrangements, as West Asia volatility keeps supply chains fragile. Maritime pressure escalates: The US says it rerouted 70+ ships under its Iran blockade, while Iran allows some Chinese transits—keeping Hormuz a live risk for shipping schedules. US–China summit fallout stays unresolved: Trump returned from Beijing with talk of “stabilized” ties but Taiwan remains the flashpoint, and China’s naval activity near Taiwan was reported again. Aviation and aerospace signals: Boeing confirmed China’s commitment for 200 jets (with talk of more), while Rolls-Royce and HAL expanded India’s jet-engine component manufacturing.
