The IEA said Europe could face jet-fuel shortages by June as early-April Hormuz shipments stayed near 3.8 million barrels a day versus more than 20 million before the crisis, though the EU said it sees no shortage evidence yet.

Why it matters: An IEA warning of a coming European jet-fuel shortage points to tighter distillate supply that would lift refiner crack spreads (up) and raise airline fuel costs (down), but it is a contested forecast, not a confirmed disruption, so the tradable read is modest.

At publish time: Headline names a specific commodity (jet fuel), a region (Europe), a timeline (by June), and the Hormuz-shipment collapse (3.8M vs 20M b/d) — a concrete supply mechanism, though hedged by the EU's "no evidence yet" pushback.
