U.S. crude futures edged lower Wednesday to close below $71 per barrel, after selling off steeply in the previous session on reports that Israel will not attack Iran’s oil facilities.

The U.S. benchmark tumbled more than 4% on Tuesday after Israel told the U.S. that it will limit its retaliatory strikes to military targets in Iran, senior Biden administration officials told NBC News.

Crude oil prices have given up most of the gains made in the wake of Iran’s Oct. 1 ballistic missile attack on Israel, as fears of an oil supply disruption in the Middle East have eased.

Here are Wednesday’s closing energy prices:

West Texas Intermediate November contract: $70.39 per barrel, down 19 cents, or 0.27%. Year to date, U.S. crude oil has fallen nearly 2%.

Brent December contract: $74.22 per barrel, down 3 cents, or 0.04%. Year to date, the global benchmark has declined more than 3%.

RBOB Gasoline November contract: $2.0403 per gallon, up 0.13%. Year to date, gasoline has decreased nearly 3%.

Natural Gas November contract: $2.367 per thousand cubic feet, down 5.24%. Year to date, gas has pulled back nearly 6%.
