Gasoline Prices Soar as Global Factors Impact Market

The recent ceasefire deal between Israel and Hezbollah, coupled with the increasing fuel reserve in the U.S., has led to a significant rise in gasoline prices.

Diesel prices have also experienced a 1.46% hike, reaching VND18,770 per liter. The ongoing discussions within OPEC+ about suspending plans to boost oil production have further influenced these price increases.
