Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East are escalating following Houthi strikes on the Al-Sabaha oil depot in Yemen, with retaliatory threats against Aramco's Riyadh refinery.

The development lifts energy stocks while creating significant headwinds for airlines and shipping due to rising fuel costs and route disruptions.
