China's government reduced planned fuel price hikes by nearly half, with gasoline increases cut from 2,205 yuan per tonne to 1,160 yuan per tonne starting Tuesday. The move aims to ease the burden on drivers as oil prices surge amid regional conflict. This marks the fifth and largest fuel price increase of the year despite the reduction.
