Brent Crude Hits $100 Per Barrel for First Time Since May as Houthi Attacks on Saudi Tankers Open New Front

Brent crude crossed $100 per barrel on July 24, 2026 — its highest level since May — rising more than 13 per cent on the week after Houthi forces attacked two Saudi oil tankers in the Red Sea in what the group described as enforcement of a new blockade of Saudi ports. Kazakhstan's suspension of crude exports through the Caspian Pipeline Consortium terminal following drone attacks compounded the supply shock. For Pakistan, which now sets retail fuel prices daily against global benchmarks, the implications are immediate.

KSE-100 Sheds Over 1,300 Points on July 24 as Rising Oil and Middle East Tensions Reverse Session Gains

Pakistan's KSE-100 index shed over 1,300 points on Thursday in a session that opened positively before sustained selling pressure — driven by geopolitical tension and rising global crude — pulled the benchmark well into negative territory. The index touched an intraday high of 175,237 before sliding to a low of 171,655, as energy and industrial stocks led broad-based declines.

Petrol Rises Rs4.40 to Rs331.52 for July 24 as Daily Mechanism Tracks Continued Middle East Oil Surge

Pakistan's daily fuel pricing mechanism has pushed petrol up by Rs4.40 per litre for July 24, 2026, taking the pump price to Rs331.52 — the fourth consecutive daily increase since the mechanism launched on July 17. High-speed diesel rises by Rs3.62 to Rs378.66 per litre, approaching the Rs379 mark. OGRA attributed the increase to continued volatility in global crude markets driven by the US-Iran conflict and Strait of Hormuz supply fears.

Both Sides

This week Pakistan called Saudi Arabia to condemn Houthi attacks on Saudi oil tankers, vowed force to protect Saudi maritime interests, and simultaneously received Iran's Interior Minister with a personal message from President Pezeshkian calling Pakistan a "second home for all Iranians." Both happened. Both are true. Pakistan has become the world's most practiced diplomat of the impossible middle position.

Iran’s Interior Minister Delivers Pezeshkian’s Personal Message to PM Shehbaz in Islamabad; Iran Calls Pakistan “A Second Home for All Iranians”

Iranian Interior Minister Eskandar Momeni arrived in Islamabad this week carrying a personal message from President Masoud Pezeshkian to Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, focused on the evolving regional security situation and Iran's assessment of a diplomatic path forward. Iranian officials described Pakistan as a "brotherly country" and "a second home for all Iranians" — language signalling an unusual depth of diplomatic trust as Pakistan maintains its role as one of the most active neutral channels between Tehran and Washington in the ongoing US-Iran conflict.

Khamenei Calls for End to Iran’s “Neither War Nor Peace” State; Pakistan-Iran Diplomatic Back-Channel Remains Active

Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has instructed President Masoud Pezeshkian to end what he described as the "neither war nor peace" state that has defined Iran's position since the collapse of the June 17 MOU ceasefire, according to Middle East Monitor. The instruction is being read by regional analysts as a signal that Iran's leadership is open to a new diplomatic framework — but on terms that address the Strait of Hormuz passage dispute at the core of the MOU's collapse. Pakistan's mediation channel remains active, with Iran's Interior Minister having delivered a personal message from Pezeshkian to PM Shehbaz in Islamabad this week.
