Iran has intensified attacks on oil facilities in the Middle East, setting fire to two oil tankers in Iraqi waters and causing the death of a crew member.


These attacks come in the context of an escalating conflict, triggered by joint airstrikes by the US and Israel on Iran, resulting in approximately 2,000 deaths, including over 1,100 children.


In this climate of tension, the spokesperson for the Iranian army warned that oil prices could reach 200 dollars per barrel, emphasizing that regional security has been destabilized by the US.


Oil prices have risen significantly, and the International Energy Agency has recommended the release of 400 million barrels from global strategic reserves. In addition, the Strait


of Hormuz, a crucial channel for oil transport, is under Iranian control, complicating navigation.


The US and its allies are analyzing options to ensure the escort of ships in the Gulf, while Trump claims that American forces have destroyed a large part of Iran's military capability.
