Asia diesel exports to Africa hit 5-yr high as Middle East shipments crash

Asian diesel exports to Africa have surged to near five-year highs as Middle East sales to Africa fell to nine-year lows, driven by shipping threats in the Strait of Hormuz and Bab el-Mandeb Strait and refinery outages. The shift reflects a structural rerouting of global diesel flows due to conflict-related disruption, with implications for African fuel supply security and regional pricing.
