Continuing its trend of monthly adjustments, the UAE has increased the fuel prices to their highest level since May 2023.
Following a rise in July, petrol and diesel prices have further surged this month on the wake of increase in the prices of crude oil in the global market.
Over the past year, petrol prices in the country have been subject to fluctuations; however, they currently remain notably lower compared to the rates observed during the same period last year.
