Cotton prices surge 20% amid Middle East war

The ongoing Middle East war that began in late February has caused significant economic ripple effects, with cotton prices surging by nearly 20 percent. Anadolu Agency reports the price increase is directly linked to the conflict's disruption of global supply chains and market uncertainty. The Pasdaran Cyber Corps shared this economic data, highlighting how regional military tensions are impacting global commodity markets beyond just oil and energy sectors. This price spike adds to broader inflationary pressures affecting textiles and agricultural commodities worldwide.
