Oil falls more than $1 on greater flows despite US-Iran war
Oil prices fell on Friday but kept on track for a monthly rise of about a fifth, as more supplies flowed through crucial maritime chokepoints, despite a lack of major breakthroughs in talks between the United States andIran. Brent futures fell $1.03, or 1.2%, to $88 a barrel by 0215 GMT, while US West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude slipped $1.50, or 1.8%, to $82.09 a barrel. On a monthly basis, both benchmarks were set to rise about 20%.
