United States:

“Diesel prices are surging to the highest level on record as the global fuel-supply shortage hits American truckers, farmers and users in just about every sector of the U.S. economy. Retail diesel averaged $5.18 a gallon on Thursday, the highest in records going back to 2005, according to auto club AAA. Prices jumped in recent days amid record futures contracts and decades-low stockpiles, further squeezing consumers dealing with decades-high inflation.”

Maersk has a staging area in the Danish harbor town of Kalundborg for boxes loaded with Russian cargo that’s been targeted by sanctions and now needs to be inspected and rerouted to other buyers.”
