Oil prices surged on Thursday after Israel said it attacked Iranian nuclear sites in Natanz and Arak overnight and as investors grappled with fears of a broader conflict in the Middle East that could disrupt crude supplies.
Brent crude futures rose 88 cents, or 1.15%, to $77.58 a barrel by 0708 GMT, after gaining 0.3% in the previous session when high volatility saw prices fall as much as 2.7%.
