  Israel's war Cabinet met on Sunday to discuss how to respond to Iran's attack — but concluded the meeting without a decision.
  
  Iran said its attacks against Israel — made in retaliation for the April 1 bombing of Iran's embassy in Syria — are now "concluded." Iran's attack, which saw more than 300 drones and missiles hurtle toward Israel, caused minimal damage, officials said.

• U.S. oil drilling rig count steady after 8 weeks of hikes
  U.S. energy firms this week cut the number of oil and...

  U.S. energy firms this week cut the number of oil and natural gas rigs operating for a fourth week in a row for the first time since September 2023, energy services firm Baker Hughes said in its closely followed report on April 12.

  
  The total oil and gas rig count, an early indicator of future output, fell by three to 617 in the week to April 12, the lowest since November.  Baker Hughes said that puts the total rig count down 131, or 18%, below this time last year.
  
  Oil rigs fell by two to 506 this week, while gas rigs decreased by one to 109, their lowest since January 2022.
  
  The oil and gas rig count dropped about 20% in 2023 after rising by 33% in 2022 and 67% in 2021, due to a decline in oil and gas prices, higher labor and equipment costs from soaring inflation, and as companies focused on paying down debt and boosting shareholder returns instead of raising output.

  The founder of top 10 U.S. privately-held petroleum producer Petro-Hunt LLC, William Herbert Hunt, passed away on April 9. He was 95.
  
  A son of East Texas oil wildcatter H.L. Hunt, he grew his Dallas-brd Petro-Hunt to operations globally and across the U.S., including in the Permian, Williston and Powder River basins and in the Eagle Ford Shale.
  
  Domestically and globally, Petro-Hunt was instrumental in some of the largest oil discoveries in the world. In 1961, Hunt and his brother Nelson Bunker Hunt discovered the Sarir Field in Libya, one of the largest oil fields onshore Africa.
  
  Later, the family opened the North Sea with Placid Oil’s discovery in the 1970s on Block L 10/11.
