Saudi Arabia tells OPEC its crude output rose 26% last month to highest since conflict began

The significance lies less in the headline number than in the fact that it is self-reported to OPEC, making it a signal of intent as much as a production statistic. A jump of this size, framed against pre-conflict levels, suggests Riyadh is testing how much supply it can return without inviting pushback from fellow producers. The open question is whether other OPEC members treat the figure as a benchmark to match or as a share grab to resist.
