Motorists in the oil rich United Arab Emirates face the second petrol price hike at the pumps for the second month running.
UAE’s Energy Ministry announced that May on Sunday as petrol prices will increase around 10% compared to April.
Until last month, prices had been on a steady decline since the UAE changed its pricing system last August.
Petrol prices elsewhere are also expected to rise as the price of oil rallies to above $45 per barrel.
