World2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported28m ago
On Wednesday, the price of Brent crude oil for November delivery rose by 1.04 percent to close at 95.63 dollars on the London futures market. The increase occurred during a volatile trading session driven by a significant escalation in geopolitical tensions and hostilities between the United States and Iran.
The market reaction followed a series of military actions in the Middle East, characterized by Iranian retaliatory strikes against U.S. bases and targets across the Gulf and beyond. These reprisals came in direct response to a new campaign of American bombings and the reported death of four individuals at a wedding, marking the most severe intensification of the conflict in weeks.
