Missile attacks on Qatar's Ras Laffan Industrial City have knocked out 17% of the nation's LNG export capacity, with repairs expected to take five years.

The Victorian government has implemented mandatory fuel price reporting to curb sudden price hikes, following viral reports of predatory pricing at a Melbourne Shell station. The move comes as Middle East tensions trigger fuel rationing and supply chain anxieties across Australia.
