A two-week-long geopolitical conflict between Iran, Israel, and the United States continues to escalate, with Iran firing missiles and drones at targets across the Middle East and blockading the Strait of Hormuz. This has led to significant disruptions in global energy supplies, with oil prices fluctuating and warnings of a potential rise to $200 a barrel. Israel and the US are conducting intense airstrikes against Iran, aiming to dismantle its nuclear program and limit its regional influence. Casualties are mounting on all sides, and the International Energy Agency is considering releasing strategic oil reserves to mitigate the crisis. The conflict's continuation poses a severe risk to the global economy, with no immediate signs of de-escalation or negotiation.
