NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 U.S. gas prices jumped to an average of $4 a gallon again Monday as the U.S. and Iran\u00a0launched more attacks.<\/p>\n

According to motor club federation AAA, the national average for a gallon of regular gasoline is now back to $4. The average price a year ago was $3.14 a gallon.<\/p>\n

The price is a national average, meaning drivers in some states have been paying well over $4 a gallon for a while now, while others pay less. Prices vary between states due to factors ranging from nearby supply to differing tax rates.<\/p>\n

People around the world are also dealing with high gas prices as a result of the war.<\/p>\n

Gas prices first went over $4 a gallon on average at the end of March. They dipped\u00a0below that in mid-June\u00a0and continued to fall as crude oil prices eased when the U.S. and Iran\u00a0reached an interim deal. Even then, President Donald Trump expressed frustration that\u00a0gas prices weren\u2019t falling\u00a0as quickly as oil prices.<\/p>\n

Affordability is likely to be a key issue for voters in the U.S. midterm elections, and higher gas and oil prices can help push up prices for groceries and other goods.<\/p>\n

Oil prices\u00a0have climbed again\u00a0in recent days as the U.S. and Iran move closer to resuming an\u00a0all-out war.<\/p>\n

Brent crude, the international standard, fell slightly by Monday morning trading in the U.S. \u2014 down $1.64 to $86.46 per barrel. But that\u2019s still much higher than prewar levels, when crude was going for close to $70 a barrel. Meanwhile, benchmark U.S. crude dropped $1.87 to $79.91 per barrel.<\/p>\n
