Oil prices edged up on Monday to rise more than 3% as mounting attacks by the Iran-aligned Yemeni Houthi militant group on ships in the Red Sea disrupted maritime trade and raised concerns of supply disruption. Brent crude futures were up 3.7%, to $79.37 a barrel earlier today, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude rose $2.44, or 3.4%, to $73.87. Oil giant BP has announced it is pausing all shipments of oil through the Red Sea after recent attacks on vessels by Houthi rebels. According to experts, if disruptions continue, prices will climb further. The Red Sea is one of the world's most important routes for oil and liquid natural gas shipments, as well as for consumer goods. #NTVNews #NTVTonight #NTVWeekendEdition Subscribe to Our Channel For more news visit http://www.ntv.co.ug Follow us on Twitter http://www.twitter.com/ntvuganda Connect with us on Messenger via m.me/NTVUganda

This destruction of the Ozone layer is bound to lead to ailments, like skin diseases, cancer, sunburns, cataracts, quick aging, and a weak immune system. The call comes at a time when the Montreal Protocol continues to invest money into developing countries to protect the Ozone layer. #NTVNews #NTVTonight #NTVWeekendEdition Subscribe to Our Channel For more news visit http://www.ntv.co.ug Follow us on Twitter http://www.twitter.com/ntvuganda Connect with us on Messenger via m.me/NTVUganda
