YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Hundreds of farmers and truck drivers have been protesting in Dublin streets for the fifth day in response to rising fuel prices, with more than a third of service stations in the Irish Republic reportedly running out of fuel on Saturday, April 11.

Frustrated by rising fuel prices, transportation industry stakeholders are feeling the impact, calling for caps on fuel prices or reductions in carbon taxes. The protest comes after over a third of Ireland's 1,500 service stations are out of fuel, a situation likely to worsen with ongoing roadblocks, according to Fuels for Ireland chief executive Kevin McPartlan.

Irish police are instructed to be on standby for potential weekend duty, and the military is prepared to assist in removing vehicles as the government resumes talks to resolve the disputes. Irish authorities noted that the global price spike is due to Middle East conflicts affecting oil exports, as the Strait of Hormuz still remains closed. The United States and Iran have reached a conditional two-week ceasefire agreement, ahead of a deadline set by US President Donald Trump for a broader understanding that includes the reopening of the strategic strait.
