The Iranian Oil Refining Company has officially confirmed an attack on the Lavan refinery, while new reports from Iranian media indicate that Kharg Island, the country's primary oil export hub, has also been targeted. This development marks a severe escalation in the regional energy conflict, shifting the scope from domestic refining to critical export infrastructure. These successive strikes raise profound concerns regarding the stability of global oil supplies and the potential for large-scale retaliatory actions. The targeting of Kharg Island introduces a significant risk premium to market prices due to its pivotal role in Iranian crude flows to international markets. Analysts are now closely monitoring the extent of the damage and its immediate impact on Iran's export capacity. These developments are expected to provide strong bullish support for Brent Crude and WTI prices as supply disruption risks intensify.
