Iran accused the U.S. and Israel of attacking its South Pars gas field in the Persian Gulf on March 18, 2026, marking the first strike on a major Iranian upstream energy facility during the conflict. The attack triggered an immediate spike in global oil prices as markets reacted to potential supply disruptions from one of the world’s largest gas fields. Iran vowed retaliation, escalating tensions after the recent killing of security chief Larijani, which Tehran blamed on foreign adversaries. The White House has not confirmed involvement, but the strike aligns with broader regional efforts to destabilize Iran’s energy infrastructure and economic stability. Analysts warn the attack could further destabilize Gulf energy markets, risking broader economic fallout amid ongoing geopolitical tensions.
