Oil hits $108 after Gulf states postpone talks with Iran over Hormuz
📍 Aftermath
Oil prices reached $108 per barrel after Gulf states postponed talks with Iran over the Strait of Hormuz, while shipping traffic through the strait remained below its 10-day average. Houthi attacks on a Saudi airbase and other targets intensified regional tensions, further disrupting tanker traffic and contributing to the price surge.
The situation remained unresolved as of the last coverage, with no indication of resumed talks or a reduction in hostilities.
