Oil Prices Dip from Six-Month Highs Amid Ongoing Saudi Arabia-Houthi Tensions
Oil prices fell on Monday after reaching near six-month highs last week, amid ongoing attacks by Houthi militants on Saudi Arabian infrastructure that raised supply concerns. US crude futures dropped to around $101.50 per barrel, while Brent crude declined to about $115. Despite the dip, prices remain elevated due to persistent geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. Saudi Arabia partially resumed operations at its main airport after damage, and the US ordered non-essential personnel to leave the country. Experts warn that continued instability could impact global oil markets and economies reliant on imports.
