Summary
There is a lively debate surrounding whether Israel struck Iranian oil facilities in October. Participants are divided, citing various reports and images, with some believing that Israeli attacks caused damage at an Iranian refinery. However, there are conflicting reports from media outlets, with some indicating that Israeli forces targeted defense systems rather than oil facilities, and others pointing out that official sources have denied direct targeting of oil infrastructures. The general consensus leans towards uncertainty, given the challenges in providing conclusive evidence for a direct hit on oil facilities by Israeli forces.
- Multiple sources, including satellite imagery and news reports from BBC and New York Times, offer conflicting evidence about the targeting and damage to Iranian oil facilities during Israeli strikes. Some claim a direct hit, while others cite denial from officials and a lack of hard evidence supporting these claims.
- The possibility of collateral damage versus targeted strikes is central to the discussion. Despite some damage observed, the ambiguity over Israel's direct involvement or intentional targeting makes it difficult for the claims to be verified conclusively for a "YES" outcome in this market.

Don't see this going Yes in hindsight, too hard to prove even if it was contested.
