Oil prices fell on Wednesday after a report that the International Energy Agency is considering the largest release of strategic oil reserves in its history to curb crude prices that surged during the US-Israel-Iran war.

Brent crude futures slipped 23 cents (0.26%) to $87.57 per barrel at 0023 GMT, while US West Texas Intermediate crude dropped 37 cents (0.44%) to $83.08 per barrel.
