Saudi, Russia Stick to Planned Oil Cuts Amid Mideast Tension

- Both countries reaffirm the curbs that continue to year-end
- Oil has erased some gains since outbreak of Israel-Hamas war

Saudi Arabia and Russia reaffirmed that they will stick with oil supply curbs of more than 1 million barrels a day until the end of the year, even as turmoil in the Middle East roils global markets.
