AI Fusion Summary

Brent crude prices rose above $98 per barrel as Iran-backed Houthis claimed strikes on Saudi Arabian tankers in the Red Sea. These attacks threaten to expand the regional conflict and severely impact global oil supplies, which are already hindered by the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. Consequently, oil prices are nearing the $100 per barrel mark again due to the increased instability and risks associated with shipping in the Red Sea region.
