"CAIRO/WASHINGTON/DUBAI, Sept 9 (Reuters) - Iran said on Wednesday it had attacked 10 βships near the Strait of Hormuz after the U.S. sank five Iranian oil tankers, in the biggest wave of attacks on shipping by both sides since the βstart of the six-month-old war.
The attacks sent the price of oil surging, with benchmark Brent crude futures breaching $100 a barrel for the first time since July. At least one seafarer aboard a tanker was reported killed and another listed as missing."
