- The tax discount on fuel has been reduced by half, to 50 agorot.

The price of 95-octane gasoline at self-service stations will increase by 50 agorot per liter starting at midnight, reaching NIS 7.85. This follows a NIS 1 reduction earlier in the month, which brought the price down to NIS 7.35 due to a blue tax discount. Minister of Finance Bezalel Smotrich signed an order extending the tax discount but reducing it to only half a shekel. The new price will remain in effect until the end of November.
In parallel, the National Council for Planning and Building has approved easier regulations for establishing fast-charging stations for electric vehicles at gas stations. As part of the update to the master plan, up to 100 square meters of additional building rights will be permitted for electrical rooms and infrastructure facilities at stations equipped with at least five fast-charging points. This move aims to expand charging infrastructure in Israel and adapt gas stations to the increasing use of electric vehicles.
