World oil prices
At 6:00 a.m. on December 10, Brent oil price increased by 1.02 USD (equivalent to 1.4%) to 72.14 USD/barrel. WTI oil price increased by 1.17 USD (equivalent to 1.7%) to 68.37 USD/barrel.
On December 8, the Syrian opposition announced that it had taken control of Damascus and ended the regime of President Bashar al-Assad. This raised concerns about further instability in the Middle East. In addition, Israel has conducted lightning airstrikes in Syria to consolidate control of key strategic locations and neutralize any remaining military infrastructure linked to the former Syrian regime so that it does not fall into the hands of the Syrian rebels.
Although Syria is not a major oil producer, it has geopolitical influence due to its geographical location and relations with Russia and Iran.

Meanwhile, Xinhua reported that China will focus on expanding domestic demand and boosting consumption.
