Israel Strikes Iran: Oil prices rise by over 4 per cent after reports of Israeli strikes | Oneindia
Oil prices surged by more than four percent on Friday following Israel's missile strikes on Iran, amplifying concerns of heightened tensions in the West Asia region.
The global benchmark, Brent crude, soared to $90.54 per barrel, while US West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures spiked by 4.06 percent to $86.09.
With apprehensions mounting over a potential escalation of the Gaza conflict spreading beyond Israel's borders, there are growing fears of a significant impact on the global oil supply.
In a dramatic escalation of hostilities, Iraqi fighters executed back-to-back drone attacks on November 5, 2024, targeting key installations in Haifa, Israel. The strikes, which hit both an oil refinery and the Tamar gas field, were framed as retaliatory actions in response to ongoing violence against civilians in Palestine. Video footage released by the Islamic Resistance in Iraq captures the moments of the attacks, showcasing their military capabilities and underscoring the group’s commitment to resisting perceived occupation. As tensions continue to rise, these incidents highlight the increasingly volatile situation in the region and the potential for further conflict.
