  "summary": "NDINDI NYORO, an MP from Kiharu, has cautioned that global oil prices could reach their highest levels since the Iran crisis began next week, potentially leading to further fuel price hikes in Kenya. The warning comes amid rising concerns over the escalating conflict between Iran and the United States, which could intensify as the US approaches its midterm elections in November. Nyoro suggested that Iran might target more ships and oil facilities to inflict economic and political damage on US President Donald Trump, disrupting global petroleum supplies. Kenya's Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) recently raised pump prices, with petrol now at Ksh226.96 per litre, diesel at Ksh227.76, and kerosene at Ksh219.87, sparking public anger and protests.",
