Oil prices surged in early Asian trade on Wednesday following a surprise attack by Iranian forces against U.S. bases across the Middle East.

The assault, which was successfully intercepted by U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM), ended hopes of a diplomatic breakthrough between the two nations.

Brent crude climbed to $87.95 per barrel, up 4.59%, while West Texas Intermediate was trading at $82.89, up 4.58%.
