Amid the ongoing regional conflict, and escalating war between Iran-US-Israel, UAE has been grappling with numerous problems being faced by the authorities and citizens alike. While public safety and board exam schedules were already looming as consistent troubles, a recent hike in vegetable prices has darkened the cloud of doom for the public.
Residents in the UAE have been reporting sudden fluctuations in the price of vegetables and other commodities in recent days. But now, the Ministry of Economy and Tourism has made moves to intensify monitoring efforts to control the prices in the market. As per the ministry, the prices of some commodities like tomatoes and onions have seen a temporary rise in the past two days due to the effects of the ongoing regional crisis.
