Crude oil futures fell sharply on Tuesday reversing earlier gains on the session, to halt an extended rally that enabled the futures to reach its highest level for 2015. The declines of more than 2% transpired amid escalating conflict in Yemen and ahead of the American Petroleum Institute's weekly supply report. Meanwhile, crude oil extends losses after Saudi Arabia's announcement that it would end its three-week operation against Iran-allied Houthi rebels in Yemen eased tensions in the Middle East.
