Fuel prices rose slightly, with 20 liters of 95-octane gasoline reaching LL206,400. Twenty liters of 98-octane gas now cost LL213,500, and the price of the same amount of diesel rose by more than LL20,000 to become LL183,600. This is the third price increase in just two weeks as the government prepares to fully end fuel subsidies that have been in place for two years as of today.
