Israel Strikes Iran’s Nuclear Sites, Key Military Chief Killed, Oil & Gold Surge

Your morning briefing, the business news you need in just 15 minutes.


On today's podcast:


(1) Israel launched waves of airstrikes against Iran’s nuclear program and ballistic-missile sites on Friday morning, a major escalation in the standoff between the two adversaries that risks sparking a wider war in the Middle East.


(2) Explosions were heard across Tehran and in the city of Natanz, home to one of its nuclear sites, according to videos and local media.


(3) US President Donald Trump says Iran cannot have a nuclear bomb, Fox News journalist Bret Baier reports, citing an interview with him after Israel launches strikes against Iran. The strikes came just hours after Trump had suggested to reporters the US still believed in the prospects for a diplomatic solution.


(4) Oil surged as much as 13% after Israel carried out waves of military strikes against Iran, raising fears of a wider war in a region that accounts for a third of global crude production.


(5) Stocks fell along with equity-index futures and investors rushed to the safety of haven assets after Israel attacked Iran’s nuclear program sites in a major escalation of tensions in the Middle East. Crude oil jumped 9%, the biggest move in more than three years.


(6) Investigators have started combing the wreckage of Air India flight AI171 as they seek to determine what caused the Boeing Co. Dreamliner to crash shortly after takeoff Thursday afternoon, killing all but one of the 242 people aboard in the deadliest aviation accident in more than a decade.
