Oil surpasses $100 amid tensions
Oil prices have risen significantly, with the price of a barrel of Brent crude surpassing $100 for the first time in over six weeks. This increase is driven by escalating military tensions in the Middle East, especially following Houthi attacks by Yemen that caused fires at Saudi oil facilities and threaten oil shipments through the Red Sea. These developments reflect market concerns over the ongoing conflict and its potential impact on oil flows, with expectations of further price hikes due to the continued possibility of escalation in the region.
