Oil prices rose more than 1% following a US military strike on two Iranian rocket launchers on Larak Island, escalating tensions in the Middle East. The attack, the first acknowledged US strike on Iranian positions since July, has heightened concerns over supply disruptions through the crucial Strait of Hormuz, a key global energy route. Iran responded with attacks on US bases in Jordan, further destabilizing the region. Analysts warn that ongoing conflict and refinery strikes are tightening global oil supply and pushing prices higher.
