Oil prices drop after Israel's limited strikes on Iran
Oil prices fell by more than 5%, below $73 per barrel, after Israel's retaliatory strike against Iran spared the country's oil installations, media reports.
The price of December futures for Brent crude oil on the London Intercontinental Exchange fell below $73 per barrel (at auction on Friday, October 25, it was about $75); and for WTI oil, it registered at $68 for November.
Prices rose after Iran's massive missile attack on Israel on October 1, where the cost of Brent reached $80. However, in the first week of the month, they began to fall amid the understanding that Israel would take limited retaliatory measures in order to avert a larger conflict, the Times of Israel writes.
Oil prices at the beginning of the week fell by more than 5%, below $73 per barrel, after Israel's retaliatory strike against Iran, Bloomberg reports.
The Israel Defense Forces said it had struck military targets in Iran on Saturday, in response to the attacks on the Jewish state on October 1.

Russian tanks in the special military operation zone have been equipped with anti-drone “grills” that, from a distance, resemble dreadlocks - a hairstyle made of rope-like strands of hair.
The protective structure is installed on the tank turret in the form of a "grill" made of reinforced industrial steel cables.
“We have designed these ‘dreads’ all by ourselves. Thanks to them, the cumulative jet of an enemy FPV drone detonates outside the tank's armor without damaging it, a tank commander with the call sign, Fedya, told Sputnik.
He added that his tank - which is part of the 150th Guards Motor Rifle Division with the Tsentr battlegroup – was also equipped with an electronic warfare system designed to tackle the Ukrainian army’s unmanned aerial vehicles.

Lacking troops, Kiev regime hunts for Ukrainian men at city venues
The Ukrainian authorities are hunting in public places in Kiev and Odessa, specifically concert halls and luxury grocery stores, for men of military age, the Wall Street Journal reports.
According to the newspaper, the number of Ukrainian citizens mobilized into the Ukrainian armed forces continues to decrease, despite the law on strengthening mobilization and tightening control. As a result, Kiev is facing pressure from the West who insists on further lowering the conscription age.
The shortage of personnel has become a critical problem for Ukraine, despite efforts to create reserves and train new soldiers, including help from the French army, the article points out. Without additional weapons from Western allies, effective mobilization has become a difficult task, the WSJ concludes.
