๐Ÿšจ ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท US and Israel reportedly plan a week of Iran strikes after the midterms if no deal, energy sites included

  • ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท US and Israeli officials expect any renewed campaign soon after the midterms to involve about a week of heavy strikes on Iranian leadership, energy, nuclear and infrastructure sites if there is no last-minute deal, a US news site reported (newswires, , unconfirmed)
  • Mediators are reportedly telling Tehran that taking the current proposals may be its only way to avoid those attacks; letting UN inspectors into nuclear sites could earn waivers for its oil exports and access to some frozen funds

FO view: The oil-waiver offer is the other side of the same coin: a deal would take barrels and premium out quickly, so this widens both tails rather than settling direction.

Not investment advice.
