The UAE links fuel prices to movements in international oil rates, which have seen high volatility in recent weeks, mainly due to political uncertainties.

The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), Russia and other major producers, known as OPEC+, agreed to reduce output by 1.2 million barrels per day from January 1 for six months.

They are scheduled to meet in Vienna from June 25- 26 to discuss extending the pact, a move which could further impact prices.
