Fuel prices rise significantly this Monday, with diesel increasing 12 cents per liter and gasoline rising 10 cents. This is one of the largest variations recorded in recent weeks, according to industry sources.
The appreciation of Brent crude in international markets is the main driver of this increase. The barrel closed the last session at 96.28 dollars, representing an increase of approximately 7.8% compared to the previous week.
The worsening of the ongoing war is pointed out as the driving factor behind this escalation in crude prices, creating additional pressure on fuel costs.
The consequences of this rise directly affect consumers, in a period already marked by economic pressure on families and businesses.
