Notícias de Coimbra8 September 2026 at 20:05

The natural gas price for one-month delivery on the TTF market in the Netherlands recorded a strong rise today, exceeding 76 euros per megawatt-hour. The increase is directly related to the Middle East conflict, which has generated uncertainty in global energy markets. This appreciation occurs in a context of growing geopolitical tension in the region, which affects energy supply prospects in Europe. The TTF market, which serves as a benchmark for natural gas prices in Europe, has been particularly sensitive to geopolitical developments that may threaten energy supply.

Portugal joins United Kingdom and ten other countries that will ban trade with Israeli settlements

Portugal joined 11 other countries, including the United Kingdom, France, Spain and Ireland, in a coordinated sanctions action against illegal Israeli settlements in the West Bank, prohibiting the import of goods produced in these territories. The United Kingdom officially declared that the Israeli occupation in the West Bank is illegal under international law, with the British Foreign Secretary, Ed Miliband, accusing Israel of attempting "ethnic cleansing" against Palestinians. Israel responded by announcing the closure of the British consulate in Jerusalem and excluding the United Kingdom from the US-led mission to Gaza, with Minister Gideon Saar accusing the British of "scandalous lies". The joint statement from the 12 countries alerts to the deterioration of the situation in the West Bank, with unprecedented levels of settler violence and settlement expansion, calling on Israel to cease these practices. The sanctions also include restrictions on financing services for expansion, sanctions on violent individuals and review of weapons exports.
