Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - International Service: The BBC news network, in its report, announced that Brent crude initially rose above $110 per barrel, claiming that the release of news about possible negotiations to end the US and Israeli aggression against Iran caused a drop in crude oil prices; a claim that Iran has not yet confirmed.
Reuters also reported that OPEC+ agreed yesterday (Sunday) to increase its oil production quota by 206,000 barrels per day for May; a limited increase that will remain mostly on paper in practice, as key members of the group are unable to increase production due to the ongoing war against Iran.
