3:32Now PlayingOil nudged higher following attacks on shipping in and around the Strait of Hormuz, highlighting continued risks to vessels in the critical waterway.
Brent traded near $73 a barrel. A laden liquefied natural gas carrier, Al Rekayyat, was hit by a projectile near the Omani coast as it exited the waterway. Axios reported that two vessels were hit and suffered damage.
