  "account": "Oil prices have surged amid concerns over a prolonged conflict impacting global energy supplies. The price of Brent crude rose 3.6% to $103.8 per barrel after attacks on commercial vessels in the Strait of Hormuz. Ten ships were attacked last week, the highest number since the conflict began in February. As a result, oil transit through the strait has dropped 27% from its peak during the war, with around 13 million barrels of crude passing through daily, down from over 20 million before the conflict.",
