What happened

Well supportedReported by 20 independent outlets

Crude oil prices have surged following the re-escalation of tensions in the Middle East, driven by reports that the United States and Israel are planning a joint military operation against Iran's energy and nuclear facilities. Energy-driven inflation worries have intensified due to the potential for oil and energy trade disruption for an indefinite period. Despite these inflation concerns, the Federal Reserve is widely expected to leave interest rates unchanged at its upcoming meeting.
