US-Israeli war on Iran expands and shuts down Gulf oil and gas production

A US-Israeli conflict with Iran has escalated across the Middle East, with ongoing bombing campaigns in Iran and Lebanon. In response, Iran has targeted over 500 US and Israeli sites, downing fighter jets and launching rockets at a British base. The conflict has severely disrupted global energy supplies, as attacks on Saudi and Qatari facilities forced a halt in oil and gas production, causing prices to surge. The war also expanded to Lebanon after Hezbollah fired on Israel, triggering a deadly Israeli bombing campaign.
