Belgian diesel price hits record €2.5010/L amid Middle East tensions

Belgium's maximum diesel price will rise to €2.5010 per liter on Tuesday, surpassing the previous record of €2.489 set on April 9, 2026, following the Middle East war. The increase reflects sustained upward pressure on refined product prices, though the SPF Economy notes Belgium's energy supply remains secure. The new record signals continued pass-through of global oil market tightness to European consumers.
