International Energy Agency (IEA) Executive Director Fatih Birol warned Thursday that Europe has approximately six weeks of jet fuel reserves remaining. Speaking to the Associated Press, Birol cautioned that travelers could face widespread flight cancellations "soon" if global supply chains remain disrupted by the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. The crisis stems from the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, a vital artery for global energy. Birol described the situation as the "largest energy crisis" in history, noting that while Asian markets are currently on the frontline, the impact is rapidly spreading to European and American soil. The IEA indicates that Europe relies on the Middle East for 75% of its jet fuel imports. If the blockade persists and alternative supplies aren't secured, airport operations could be significantly throttled by early June. ‘Our Launchers Are Locked’: Khamenei’s Adviser Threatens To Sink US Warships Amid Escalating Iran-US Tensions.
