Gulf stock markets declined on Sunday as rising geopolitical tensions increased pressure on investor sentiment. The situation follows military developments and growing concerns about further escalation in the Middle East.
Several markets recorded losses, including Qatar, Kuwait, and Bahrain, while Saudi Arabia managed modest gains driven by banking and energy sectors.
At the same time, reports confirmed that Saudi Arabia’s East-West pipeline continues to operate at full capacity to ensure oil supply stability.
Oil prices also climbed amid uncertainty about potential de-escalation, highlighting market sensitivity to regional developments.
