Bongani Bingwa speaks to Bobby Ramagwede, CEO of the Automobile Association of South Africa, and Tseliso Maqubela, Deputy Director-General for Mineral and Petroleum Regulation, about the potential impact of the escalating Middle East conflict on South Africa’s fuel supply and prices.

As global oil prices climb amid growing instability, concerns are mounting about disruptions through the Strait of Hormuz, a narrow but critical route through which nearly a fifth of the world’s oil supply passes.

Any interruption could send fuel prices sharply higher and raise questions about whether South Africa has sufficient reserves to withstand a prolonged disruption.
