US oil prices are rising, and the public says they will not be able to afford if they rise further.

The US attack on Iran that caused a disruption in shipping in the Strait of Hormuz has pushed up international oil prices. With winter coming to an end, the amount of oil used by American households for travel in their vehicles, known as the "car nation," will significantly increase, and the soaring prices of finished oil products have brought additional burdens to the American people. According to the American Automobile Association, the average price of gasoline in the US has risen by more than 20% compared to a month ago. (CCTV News)
