India, July 10 -- European stocks are seen opening mixed on Friday, with energy stocks in focus following reports of Iranian attacks on U.S. military infrastructure in West Asia. Brent crude prices climbed toward $77 a barrel after falling nearly 2 percent in the previous session on speculation the escalation of hostilities between the U.S. and Iran will be limited.

After the U.S. military hit 90 Iranian targets, Iran retaliated by targeting U.S. assets in Kuwait, Bahrain and Qatar. Tehran reportedly launched more strikes in Kuwait, Jordan, and Iraq later on Thursday.
