Oil approaches $100 a barrel after Saudi facilities attacked; UK gas prices surge
Saudi authorities report Houthi attacks on energy facilities as gas prices rise ahead of winter.
Saudi authorities said operations at some energy facilities have been attacked by Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthis. The attacks have contributed to upward pressure on global oil markets.
Gas prices are rising in the UK, with the month-ahead gas price up around 1% at 184p a therm, close to yesterday's highs. European countries are facing pressure to stock up storage levels before winter, amid concerns about supply.
