Floridas Gas Prices Soar Amid Middle East Tensions
Florida's gas prices have increased by 11 cents per gallon over the past week, with the average price reaching $4.28 as of Monday.
The jump is attributed to volatility in oil markets due to ongoing tensions in the Middle East, particularly the Iran War.
Rising oil prices have created uncertainty about global oil supplies, putting upward pressure on oil prices, according to AAA spokesperson Mark Jenkins.
