Oil rises more than a dollar per barrel as US launches fresh strikes against Iran

Oil prices rose more than a dollar a barrel in post-settlement trade on Wednesday after the U.S. military ​began launching fresh strikes on Iran.
 
Both crude benchmarks had settled at their ‌highest in over two weeks after U.S. President Donald Trump threatened fresh strikes against Iran as soon as Wednesday night. Trump also said that an interim deal to ​end the Iran war was "over", but then ruled out full-fledged war.
