Egyptian Prime Minister Mustafa Madbouly said Tuesday that his government had to raise fuel prices to make sure local production continues and the economy remains stable.

Madbouly said during a cabinet meeting that the government faced a choice between maintaining current fuel prices — a move that would have imposed heavy costs on the state — or raising them to shield industrial and business operations from the repercussions of the U.S.–Israel war on Iran.]]> Wed, 11 Mar 2026 17:45:09 +0200 Egypt prime minister defends fuel price hike <![CDATA[<p><img src="https://www.headlinesafrica.com/uploads/thumbs/525cb0f83-1.jpg" /></p>Egyptian Prime Minister Mustafa Madbouly said Tuesday that his government had to raise fuel prices to make sure local production continues and the economy remains stable.<br /> <br /> Madbouly said during a cabinet meeting that the government faced a choice between maintaining current fuel prices — a move that would have imposed heavy costs on the state — or raising them to shield industrial and business operations from the repercussions of the U.S.–Israel war on Iran.]]> https://www.headlinesafrica.com/egypt-prime-minister-defends-fuel-price-hike_525cb0f83.html https://www.headlinesafrica.com/egypt-residents-struggle-amid-price-hikes_f62d3a687.html

El-Sayed Mohamed, a truck driver, is among those affected. "Prices are high because vendors use trucks to transport vegetables from wholesalers, which increases the costs. Today, the cost of transporting vegetables has risen to 3,000-4,000 Egyptian pounds [78-57 USD] from the previous 2,500 pounds," he said.]]> Wed, 11 Mar 2026 17:45:08 +0200 Egypt: Residents struggle amid price hikes <![CDATA[<p><img src="https://www.headlinesafrica.com/uploads/thumbs/f62d3a687-1.jpg" /></p>Many Egyptians are fretting over price hikes that have seen the cost of everyday goods surge.<br /> <br /> It comes after the government increased fuel prices, blaming soaring global energy markets due to the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran.<br /> <br /> El-Sayed Mohamed, a truck driver, is among those affected.
