WHAT HAPPENED

New reports say drone attacks damaged a major Saudi pipeline, pushing Brent crude above $107 per barrel. Saudi Arabia is reportedly at risk of losing oil-export stocks if the disruption continues.

SO WHAT?

Damage to a major oil transport route could sharply constrain Saudi exports and drive a broader global energy-price shock.
