Attacks on Middle East gas facilities lead to further spikes in energy prices


Trump says he told Israel to halt strikes on Iranian energy sites, as Tehran retaliates across the region. Meanwhile, the US president is seeking $200 billion in new Pentagon funding.

Here's the latest

• Attacks on energy sites: US President Donald Trump says he told Israel to halt attacks on Iranian energy resources, as Tehran retaliates with strikes on infrastructure in Israel and Qatar. Sources tell CNN the US was aware of Israel’s plan to strike Iran’s South Pars field yesterday, despite Trump stating otherwise.

• Prices spike: The global oil benchmark hit $115 a barrel today. As prices soar, the US could “unsanction” some Iranian oil and may release more from its strategic reserve.

• More from Washington: Trump confirmed he’s seeking $200 billion in new Pentagon funding, calling it a “small price to pay” to equip the military. On Capitol Hill, intelligence chief Tulsi Gabbard testified about Iran’s nuclear capabilities and US objectives for the war.

• US aircraft hit: An F-35 fighter jet made an emergency landing at a US air base in the Middle East after it was struck by what is believed to be Iranian fire, sources told CNN.
