What happened
Heavy selling in Indian equity markets was triggered by rising US bond yields, causing the Sensex to plunge 1,248 points and the Nifty to fall 384 points. Separately, an adviser to Iran’s Supreme Leader warned that a new US attack could expand the conflict to the Indian Ocean.

Why it matters
