Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>The price of Brent crude oil fell Monday below the $70 a barrel level for the first time since the beginning of clashes between Israel and Iran.<\/p>\n

Iran retaliated Monday following US attacks over the weekend on three of its nuclear sites which resulted in no casualties, causing oil prices to lose around 8.6% as of 0900GMT.<\/p>\n

In response to the US attacks, Iran launched a missile attack Monday on Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, the largest American military base in the Middle East.<\/p>\n

In a statement on social media, US President Donald Trump thanked Iran for giving Washington advance notice of the attack, saying this prevented any loss of life or injury.<\/p>\n

\u201cPerhaps Iran can now proceed to peace and harmony in the region, and I will enthusiastically encourage Israel to do the same,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The price of Brent was trading at $69.40 a barrel at the time of writing, down 8.64%. It was at the $65 level at the beginning of June and hit $77 during clashes last week.<\/p>\n
