Oil Jumps as Fresh Israel-Iran Strikes Lift Brent to $96.75
Oil prices jumped after reports of a fresh exchange of strikes between Israel and Iran, including explosions in Tehran, intensified the weekend escalation. Brent crude rose 3.63% to $96.75 a barrel and US crude gained 3.35% to $93.89, after both benchmarks had risen more than $4 intraday.
The rally extended gains from earlier Asian trading, when Brent moved above $95 after Iranian missiles threatened a fragile ceasefire. Earlier Sunday, reports said Israel was seeking US approval to strike Iranian energy facilities following Iranian ballistic missile launches toward northern Israel, after Israel had already struck Beirut’s southern suburbs in response to Hezbollah rocket fire.
