Why it matters
The heightened tensions centered on the potential for the U.S. to take control of Iran's oil and gas markets. Trump had previously warned that the U.S. might strike Iran 'very hard tonight' and discuss taking control of Kharg Island, a key terminal for much of Iran's oil exports. Iran's Parliament Speaker cautioned that such escalation could destabilize global markets.
U.S. forces had been involved in strikes in Iran, leading to concerns that the conflict was threatening global oil supply lines.
