The International Energy Agency reported that fuel import bills in Egypt, Morocco, Tunisia and Lebanon had risen by about 66% since the start of 2026, reaching $4.8 billion a month in June, amid oil and gas supply disruptions linked to the war in the Middle East.

The agency called for diversifying supply routes, expanding electricity interconnections, investing in renewable energy and directing subsidies to the most vulnerable households.
