European gas prices have surged to their highest level in 2024 due to concerns over the security of gas transit through Ukraine. This increase follows reports that Ukrainian troops have seized the Sudzha gas-transit point, a key facility that channels Russian pipeline gas to Europe via Ukraine. The situation has heightened tensions in the region and raised fears of potential disruptions in gas supply to Europe. The Sudzha transit point's capture by Ukrainian forces marks a significant development in the ongoing conflict between Ukraine and Russia.
