U.S. government urges Israel to stop attacking Iranian energy facilities

GateNews

Gate News Report, March 10 — Three sources familiar with the matter revealed that the Trump administration has asked Israel to cease further airstrikes on Iran’s energy facilities, especially its oil infrastructure. This is reportedly the first clear restriction on Israeli military actions since the U.S.-Israel joint military operations against Iran began. The reasons for the U.S. request include the potential to drive up global oil prices and the risk of Iran launching large-scale retaliation against energy infrastructure in the Gulf region. The sources said the Trump administration considers attacking Iran’s oil facilities a “last resort” and would only take such action if Iran first attacks energy facilities in Gulf countries.

Iran Responds to the US Peace Draft: Oil Prices Drop Nearly 2%, a Turning Point in the War Emerges

Axios: Iran, via Pakistan, mediated and formally responded to the revised U.S.-side draft peace agreement; the oil market quickly weakened, with New York futures crude oil falling nearly 2% to $103.27 and Brent around $110.23. This comes as the War Powers Resolution’s 60-day deadline expires, echoing Trump’s claim that the war is already over. The key focus afterward will be Iran’s response, the threshold for congressional approval, and Trump’s position; if tensions cool, a pullback in oil prices could affect inflation expectations and the U.S. Federal Reserve’s policy.
