🚨 🇺🇸 US envoy says a strike on 🇮🇷 Iran could come as soon as this weekend
- 🇺🇸 Tom Barrack, the US Ambassador to Turkey, says the US could strike Iran as soon as this weekend, per newswires citing his interview on Israeli radio (reported, not an official announcement)
- 🇮🇷 It follows a press report earlier this evening that Iran has contingency plans to hit undersea communications cables in the Gulf if the US and Israel attack again
FO view: A named US official putting a weekend window on a strike raises the risk of a Gulf supply shock while markets are shut, adding to the oil-led inflation pressure that is holding US yields near 5%.
