Gasoline prices in Israel are set to decrease by 42 agorot per liter on Sunday, November 1, bringing the self-service price for 95-octane fuel to 7.35 shekels. However, this relief may be short-lived, as prices could jump by as much as one shekel to 8.35 shekels per liter as early as Thursday, November 5. This potential increase hinges on a decision by the Ministry of Finance regarding the extension of a one-shekel per liter excise tax reduction on gasoline. The final price after November 4 will be determined by the ministry's choice on whether to continue the tax concession.
