Energy markets face severe strain as Brent oil trades near $107 amid escalating Houthi-Saudi fighting and prolonged conflicts involving Iran and Ukraine. The International Energy Agency warns that the refining system is stretched to the limit, threatening a wider supply gap driven by the delayed return of normal Gulf flows.

Reporting from outlets including Reuters, Bloomberg, CNBC, the Financial Times, and Yahoo Finance details how the ongoing Iran war drags down demand expectations further. The agency warns that global consumption may need to contract even more to offset tightening markets, creating a distinctly volatile landscape for energy consumers worldwide.
