Analysts say Saudi Arabia could take weeks to return to full capacity of oil production after two of its oil sites were targeted in a drone attack
US officials release satellite images arguing the attack on Saudi oil facilities was inconsistent with one launched from Yemen and the strikes rather came from the direction of Iran or Iraq, a claim Tehran rejects as"maximum lies."
Trump said the US had reason to believe it knew who was behind the attack his secretary of state had blamed Iran the previous day and said his government was waiting to consult with the Saudis as to who they believe was behind the attack and "under what terms we would proceed!" The officials said additional devices, which apparently didn't reach their targets, were recovered northwest of the facilities and are being jointly analysed by Saudi and US intelligence.
Crude oil futures shot up 9.5 percent to $60 as trading opened Sunday evening in New York, a dramatic increase. Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Abbas Mousavi dismissed the US allegation of responsibility as "blind and futile comments."
