In an earlier statement, Rodela Romero, director of the Department of Energy’s Oil Industry Management Bureau, said a potential hike in gasoline prices could be blamed on the ongoing geopolitical tension in the Middle East, particularly the strikes between Israel and Hezbollah.

She added that the decision of OPEC+, which is composed of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and allies led by Russia, to delay output increases could influence price movements.
