Oil prices fall as markets look to Iran truce, but remain wary of attacks on oil facilities
Oil prices fell slightly on Friday as markets weighed the possibility of a truce between the US and Iran against the bombing of Saudi Arabia by Houthi rebels after a week of price spikes. Brent was down 87 cents, or 0.82%, at $105.73 a barrel at 0212 GMT, while West Texas Intermediate (WTI) was down $1.56, or 1.65%, at $93.05 a barrel. The sluggish opening was a contrast to a week of volatility when oil prices rose to a one-week high on Thursday.
