Israel may attack Iran’s oil wells

Israel has not yet decided how to respond to Iran’s attack. US President Joe Biden has made it clear that if Israel attacks Iran’s nuclear sites, America will not support it. However, when Biden was asked whether Israel was going to attack Iran’s oil wells, he said that he would not talk about it publicly. Biden’s statement has led to a surge in global oil prices. Traders fear disruption in oil supplies due to rising tensions in the Middle East. “Nothing is going to happen today,” Biden said. Israel’s Ambassador to the United Nations, Danny Danon, told CNN on Thursday that his country has “plenty of options” to retaliate and will “soon” show its strength to Tehran. (Input- Reuters)
