Oil Prices Soar 11% as Israeli Strikes on Iran Trigger Supply Fears

Synopsis:

Oil prices jumped sharply as Israeli airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities sent shockwaves through global markets. Brent rose 10.28% to USD 76.48, WTI climbed 11.38% to USD 75.82. Crude oil and natural gas sector stocks saw heightened trading activity.


Crude oil futures rallied on Thursday evening, following Israel’s military airstrikes on Iran’s key nuclear and missile sites. Brent crude surged by 10.28% to USD 76.48 per barrel, while West Texas Intermediate (WTI) jumped 11.38% to USD 75.82. Market participants braced for potential retaliation from Iran and wider regional fallout, raising the spectre of oil supply disruption across the Middle East.

This surge is one of the sharpest single-day movements in over a year, driven by fears of escalating conflict and geopolitical instability in a region that handles nearly a third of global oil flow.

Military Action Sparks Market Panic

Israel described the operation as a "targeted military strike" on Iran's nuclear programme and ballistic missile infrastructure. The attack focused on Natanz, Iran’s main enrichment centre, and reportedly resulted in the death of IRGC Commander Hossein Salami. A special state of emergency was declared in Israel following concerns about Iranian retaliation, possibly in the form of missile and drone strikes.

The US clarified it was not involved in the strikes and remains focused on protecting its regional assets. However, the geopolitical aftershock has already affected energy markets, with investors moving towards energy-linked assets and crude oil and natural gas sector stocks.

Impact On Energy Sector And Global Stability

The escalation has reignited concerns about safe oil passage through key Middle Eastern routes, including the Strait of Hormuz. Any further disruption could sharply tighten global crude supply and influence inflation-linked policymaking by central banks.

Crude oil and natural gas sector stocks were actively traded as investors shifted focus towards energy-based hedges. The geopolitical climate continues to drive price volatility as the risk of broader conflict remains elevated. The next few days will be crucial in determining whether oil markets stabilise or face prolonged turbulence.
