KARACHI: (Web Desk) Due to global economic instability and trade conflicts, gold prices on Saturday continued to rise in Pakistan.

The ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine, along with US economic policies, has increased inflation and recession worldwide. This has led to higher demand for gold.

As a result, gold prices in the global market have risen by $10 per ounce, reaching $3,084 per ounce, setting a new record.

Following this global surge, gold prices in Pakistan have also increased. The price of 24-karat gold per tola has gone up by Rs1,620, reaching Rs325,000, the highest in the country’s history. Similarly, the price of 10 grams of gold has increased by Rs1,389, reaching Rs278,635.
