In a notice issued Monday, the U.S. Maritime Administration said ship captains should decline permission for Iranian forces to board U.S. vessels. Boarding attempts, including moves to force commercial vessels into Iranian waters through small boats and helicopters, have occured as recently as Feb. 3, the agency under the Department of Transportation said.

Brent crude traded near $68.9 per barrel, holding recent gains as security concerns around the U.S.–Iran standoff continued to influence pricing despite ongoing diplomatic engagement.

Washington advised U.S.-flagged vessels to avoid Iranian waters in the Strait of Hormuz, underlining persistent risks even after talks in Oman were described as constructive. Iran’s insistence on maintaining its uranium-enrichment program remains a key obstacle.

India’s oil policy is also under the radar after reports that a new U.S. trade deal could limit Indian purchases of Russian crude, potentially tightening supply.

Brent is testing resistance at $69.40, with support positioned near $68.20.

let's not over generalize and use our critical thinking skills. we are traders after all and we need to stay logical. It's unwise to call a whole nation that. The people of Iran will love anyone who comes to their aid to free them from the dictatorship that massacres 20,000 people in the span of less than a week. Right now that person is Trump. If tomorrow the prime minister of New Zealand brings his forces to help us we will start loving that guy. Trump is the only person with enough military force to topple the regime.

You are making this order in your mind. The one who was a dictator fled Iran 47 years ago.
