The maximum price for a liter of 95-octane self-service gasoline in Israel will drop to NIS 7.35 this Saturday night, defying predictions of a price increase. This reduction might be temporary, as it depends on the renewal of a customs duty order by November 5th. The Ministry of Energy has warned that prices could rise again if the order is not extended.

Contrary to expectations of a significant price hike, the maximum price for a liter of 95-octane self-service gasoline in Israel will decrease this Saturday night to NIS 7.35. This reduction comes as a surprise to many who had anticipated a rise in fuel costs. However, the Ministry of Energy has cautioned that this price drop may be temporary. The decrease is contingent on the extension of a customs duty order, which is set to expire on November 5th. If the order is not renewed, fuel prices could potentially increase again after this date.
