	<title>Iran war is exposing South Africa’s dependency on diesel: what went wrong</title>
	<link>https://www.bizcommunity.com/article/iran-war-is-exposing-south-africas-dependency-on-diesel-what-went-wrong-178866a</link>
	<description>It is forgivable to think that an oil shock mainly hurts at the petrol pump. After all, that is where households feel it first. But when my colleagues and I at the Bureau for Economic Research started digging through South Africa’s fuel data, a different story emerged – one that says as much about the country’s infrastructure failures as it does about global geopolitics. </description>

	<link>https://www.bizcommunity.com/article/its-bleak-street-in-sa-mining-as-rising-fuel-price-starts-to-take-its-toll-067785a</link>
	<description>To quote the late American journalist and Vogue legend, Andr&amp;#233; Leon Talley, it’s “bleak street” in South African mining production. The sector is feeling the effects of the ongoing conflict between Israel, the US and Iran, which has led to a sharp rise in fuel prices.</description>

	<title>No plan to review SA’s coal exports to Israel, says Parks Tau</title>
	<link>https://www.bizcommunity.com/article/no-plan-to-review-sas-coal-exports-to-israel-says-parks-tau-289217a</link>
	<description>Trade minister Parks Tau has told Parliament that there are no plans to review the country’s coal exports to Israel.

South Africa exported 1.8-million tons of coal to Israel in 2025.

Tau claims that imposing sanctions against Israel without a United Nations resolution would violate World Trade Organisation (WTO) principles.

But activists claim South African coal is “fuelling the genocide”, and say there are exceptions to WTO rules which other countries have used to stop exports to Israel.</description>
