OECD Secretary General Mathias Cormann discusses the impact of the conflict in the Middle East on the global economy, saying the Iran war is putting "downward pressure on growth and upward ...

Iran warned it would retaliate beyond the Middle East if the US or Israel attacks it again, following renewed threats from President Donald Trump. Leading global economies on Tuesday vowed multilateral cooperation to address mounting challenges to economic stability due to the Middle East war, after talks in Paris which underscored tensions between the US and its allies. Israeli authorities are issuing Palestinians demolition orders in East Jerusalem at an accelerated rate since Israel launched war with Iran, human rights groups and U.N. experts say.

Indian markets brace for a volatile week, with the US-Iran conflict and soaring crude oil prices dominating investor sentiment. A weakening rupee, coupled with inflation concerns, adds to the pressure.

Bloomberg reported the story as "Iran Threatens to Retaliate Beyond Middle East If US Attacks." The Independent reported the story as "Unemployment rate rises and vacancies slump in first signs of Iran war jobs hit."
