Fuel Prices to Drop by Half a Shekel Per Liter Tonight
Editorial illustration generated by baba News — not a photograph of the event.

The price of gasoline in Israel is set to decrease by half a shekel per liter starting at midnight tonight. This reduction will affect the price of 95-octane gasoline, bringing it to a new benchmark. The Ministry of Energy typically sets the fuel prices on the last day of each month, with the new prices taking effect on the first day of the following month. This adjustment reflects changes in global oil prices and currency exchange rates, though the specific factors influencing this particular decrease were not detailed in the report. The new price will be published officially before midnight.
