Brent oil exceeded 105 dollars per barrel today, reaching the highest value since May. This significant increase in the crude price occurs in a context of growing tension in global energy markets.
The main cause of this rise is related to the escalation of the conflict in the Middle East, a strategic region for global oil production and transportation. The instability in the region has been worrying international markets.
The conflict is spreading with Houthi attacks from Yemen, which have carried out military operations that contribute to the increase in geopolitical uncertainty in the area. This expansion of the conflict to new fronts aggravates fears of disruptions in oil supply.
