Gasoline was increased by 62 cents on the night connecting Tuesday to Wednesday, and by 74 cents on the night connecting Wednesday to Thursday. Today, the price of gasoline, which was passed by the hike, had increased by 1.36 TL in total.

Imagine that 10 TL is burned per kilometer. Those vegetables and fruits don’t come to Istanbul on the back of a donkey. Citizens wake up when they go to the market and see the prices.
