Brent crude for June delivery spiked more than 7 percent to 126.41 dollars a barrel on 30 April, a four-year high, and WTI rose 3.4 percent to 110.31 dollars, before both pared gains, Al Jazeera reported. Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian called the US naval siege of Iranian ports 'intolerable' and an 'extension of military operations', and Trump said the US 'might need' to restart the war.
