As of Thursday, November 5, new gasoline prices have taken effect in Israel, with the cost of a liter of 95-octane gasoline at self-service stations increasing by 50 agorot, from 7.35 to 7.85 shekels. The Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure stated that the surcharge for full-service refueling remains unchanged at 26 agorot per liter, bringing the total cost to 8.11 shekels. In Eilat, where fuel is exempt from VAT, the maximum price for self-service 95-octane gasoline rose by 42 agorot to 6.65 shekels per liter. This price hike is attributed to a reduction in the temporary tax break on gasoline from one shekel to 50 agorot per liter. The new pricing is set to remain in effect until the end of November. Without the extension of the tax concession, the price of gasoline would have reached 8.35 shekels per liter.
