Oil Prices Surge Past $90 as US Strikes Iran

Oil prices jumped more than 2 percent on Monday, with the Brent International Benchmark rising above $90 a barrel after a fresh flare-up in the U.S.-Iran war.


The price surge came a day after the United States said it had attacked Iranian rocket launchers on a small island in the Strait of Hormuz, its first strikes on the country in a month. The attack prompted Tehran to retaliate by hitting U.S. military targets in Jordan.


President-elect Trump vowed to hit back against Iranian attacks on U.S. targets in the Middle East.

"Oil above $90 again! We all know what that means - fuel prices will go up, and everything else will follow. The average Nigerian suffers again."


"This US-Iran conflict is getting dangerously close to full-blown war. When will these superpowers stop using the Middle East as their battleground?"


"Strait of Hormuz is a chokepoint for global oil shipments. Any disruption there affects the entire world. This is serious."
