Fuel price hikes trigger protests in Syrian regions
The Syrian government has decided to raise fuel prices due to increased costs of importing petroleum products, which has led to widespread protests in the rural areas of Deir ez-Zor, Raqqa, Aleppo, and Idlib. Protesters responded by blocking roads and setting fires in protest against the hikes, which have impacted transportation costs and prices. The price of a liter of gasoline ranges between 185 and 195 Syrian pounds, while diesel has reached 175 pounds. There have also been increases in the prices of domestic and industrial gas, due to global energy market conditions and rising procurement costs. The Ministry of Energy confirmed that the increases are temporary and depend on market movements and costs. Prices will be reviewed periodically to ensure the availability of petroleum products and to strike a balance between economic needs and citizens’ living requirements.
