Kenya's Energy Cabinet Secretary Opiyo Wandayi has reassured the public that fuel prices will not increase despite the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, assuring that government-to-government fuel supplies remain unaffected. The Kenyan government is actively exploring alternative strategies to secure future oil imports amid regional instability. The escalating conflict in the Middle East is casting a shadow over Kenya's significant trade relationship with the Gulf region, with potential repercussions for billions of shillings in business. Heightened tensions in the Middle East are posing a significant threat to global energy markets with potentially severe economic repercussions for Kenya and the broader East African region. The United States announced that nearly 2,000 targets have been struck in Iran in a rapid offensive operation named "Operation Epic Fury" conducted alongside Israel over less than 100 hours.
