## Prediction

Within 24 hours, the U.S. and key European states are likely to launch urgent private diplomatic efforts to constrain Israel’s threatened comprehensive strike on Iranian infrastructure. Publicly, they may issue vague calls for restraint, but behind the scenes they will seek binding Israeli assurances or at least clearer red lines to avoid a direct attack on Iranian oil and gas facilities. The stakes are global: a misstep risks a systemic oil supply shock, further dollar strength, and political crises in energy‑importing states. Leaked readouts of emergency calls with Israeli leadership or synchronized G7 statements on Gulf stability would confirm this forecast.

## Drivers

- Multiple explicit Israeli statements threatening to hit all Iranian infrastructure including energy
- Ongoing U.S.–Iran kinetic exchanges inside Iran
- Brent crude surge toward $100 on Gulf fears
- CENTCOM and EUCOM both at elevated threat assessments
