Petrol and diesel prices today, 19 July: Retail fuel rates in India held steady on Sunday despite marginal changes even as global benchmark Brent headed for its biggest weekly advance since April. Renewed hostilities between US and Iran expanded beyond strictly military targets, disrupting oil cargo movement through the Strait of Hormuz further and injecting fresh risk into the market. As the adversaries exchanged back-and-forth strikes, targeting bridges, utilities and port facilities, market weighed in on the uncertainty of energy flows and the subdued prospect of a return to the fragile ceasefire signed last month. Brent crude price extends gain as West Asia war drags on After a week of tit-for-tat strikes, Brent crude climbed 4.6% on Friday and settled at $88 per barrel.
Axios report signaled widening of conflict as it suggested that US President Donald Trump-led administration notified Israel over its decision to send more refueling planes to the country to boost its Israel-based aircraft fleet. An Israeli military official on Saturday confirmed the plan to Bloomberg.
