Fuel Supply Stable Despite Middle East Conflicts, Government Says
The Government has reassured citizens that Zimbabwe has enough fuel reserves to meet demand for the next three months, easing concerns about potential shortages linked to ongoing conflicts in the Middle East.
Acting Minister of Energy and Power Development, Dr. Zhemu Soda—who also serves as Minister of Information, Publicity and Broadcasting Services—briefed the National Assembly yesterday. He presented a report on the country’s fuel preparedness, confirming that reserves are sufficient to maintain supply.
Dr. Soda addressed legislators’ worries about possible disruptions and the risk of rising pump prices due to international instability. He noted that national storage facilities are well-stocked and that agreements with regional suppliers remain in place.
The Minister, however, cautioned that while the Government has implemented measures to secure fuel supplies, prices could still be affected by global market conditions if the supply chain faces disruptions.
