The head of the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) warned on Thursday that the ongoing war in Iran is driving up energy prices worldwide, making it more expensive to deliver humanitarian aid. Higher fuel costs affect everything from running aid lorries to paying staff and buying food for displaced populations. The NRC estimates that fewer people will receive assistance as a result of these increased operational costs. The warning highlights the global humanitarian ripple effects of the conflict beyond the immediate war zone.
