Brent oil topped $100 a barrel for the first time since July, as attacks between the US and Iran and a recovery in Chinese oil buying propel the global crude benchmark higher.

The US military destroyed five Iranian tankers carrying crude in response to attempts to hit a US Navy warship with ballistic missiles overnight, Central Command said. It’s the latest escalation in the conflict, which began in February and has disrupted some flows through the vital Strait of Hormuz.
