The UAE increased fuel prices by 60 fils per litre (more than 16 per cent) for October 2026, taking them to their highest level in more than four years as global oil prices jumped amid the Middle East war. Petrol rates have surpassed Dh4 a litre. The price hike reflects global oil market volatility driven by regional conflict and supply disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz, where around a fifth of the world's oil and liquefied natural gas normally passes through.
