Israels emergency organization "Red Shield of David": Irans latest round of ballistic missile attacks has injured 8 people in Israel.June 16th news, on June 15th local time, Mustafa Hayari, director of media affairs of the Jordanian Armed Forces, said that the current situation is an attempt by one party to the conflict to drag Jordan into the war, intending to undermine Jordans security and stability. But Jordans national position has been very clear from the beginning, that is, to avoid being involved in the conflict between Iran and Israel. Regarding the measures taken by the Jordanian Armed Forces to deal with this threat, Hayari emphasized that the military has increased the combat readiness level of various combat units and logistics units since the beginning of the conflict, and has placed all combat units and troops on the highest level of alert to ensure effective response to any potential threats. Hayari said that missiles and drones entering Jordanian airspace are extremely dangerous. As military weapons, these devices may have technical deviations for a variety of reasons, making Jordanian territory a potential landing point.According to the Wall Street Journal: The Washington Post suffered a cyber attack, resulting in the compromise of the email accounts of several journalists.June 16, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said on Sunday that she had spoken with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu about the situation in the Middle East. Von der Leyen reiterated the EUs commitment to peace, stability and diplomatic efforts that have helped ease tensions. "Europe has always been clear: Iran can never acquire nuclear weapons. There is now an urgent need to reach a negotiated solution," von der Leyen said.The Iraqi Shiite armed group "Kataib Hezbollah" issued a statement on the 15th saying that if the United States intervenes in the current military conflict between Israel and Iran, the organization will "not hesitate" to launch attacks on US interests in the Middle East, including military bases. The statement also called for the closure of the US embassy in Iraq and the expulsion of US troops in Iraq, "because they are the most obvious and serious threat to Iraqs security and regional stability."

Natural Gas Price Analysis: The XNG/USD pair retreats to $2.24 within the immediate bearish channel

During the early hours of Monday, the price of Natural Gas (XNG / USD) pares intraday gains of about $2.33. In doing so, the energy asset retreats from a three-week-old bearish channel's upper line.

 

However, the bullish MACD signals and convergence of the 21-SMA and 50-SMA around $2.24 limit the XNG/USD's immediate downside.

 

In the event that the price of Natural Gas falls below $2.24, the stated channel's support around $2.11 will be crucial to monitor, as it will be the lowest point since August 2020 from which the price of XNG and USD has previously rebounded.

 

If the quote remains bearish beyond $2.11, the possibility of a decline toward the $2.00 round number cannot be ruled out. However, the peak near $1.95 in July 2020 could pose a threat to Natural Gas Bears in the future.

 

In contrast, a clear breach of the stated channel's upper line, near $2.35, is not an open invitation for the XNG/USD bulls, as the 200-SMA hurdle near $2.44 can act as the Natural Gas bears' last line of defense.

 

Even if the commodity price remains firmer beyond $2.44, the mid-March swing low near $2.48 and the $2.50 round number can act as additional upside filters before Natural Gas purchasers gain control.
