How much have oil prices risen?

The attacks prompted an instant reaction on the markets.

Brent Crude - the main international benchmark - rose more than 10% before falling back to around $75 a barrel.

The price of oil rises and falls all the time in response to big geopolitical events, and the state of the global economy, so it is not a surprise to see oil prices reacting to the attacks.

However, the Brent crude price is still about 10% lower than a year earlier.

It is also well below the peaks seen in 2022 following Russia's invasion of Ukraine, when it spiked to nearly $130.
