Brent surged almost 10% after Israel carried out military strikes against Iran. Israel targeted nuclear facilities and killed senior military commanders in a major escalation that could spark a broad war in the Middle East. Explosions were heard across Tehran, Natanz — home to a key atomic site — and other cities, according to local and social media. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel — which used 200 air force planes and said it hit around 100 targets — had “struck at the heart of Iran’s nuclear enrichment program.”
