HOUSTON, Oct 25 - Oil prices settled higher on Friday and gained 4% on the week, with investors taking stock of the ongoing conflict in the Middle East as well as the U.S. election next month.

Investors globally are piling into the U.S. dollar and betting on rising volatility ahead of these next crucial two weeks leading up to the Nov. 5 election in the U.S., as well as an election in Japan, and three major central banks deciding on interest rates and the UK government presenting its new budget.

An Israeli strike killed three journalists in south Lebanon on Friday, Lebanon's health ministry said, and the UN refugee agency warned that Israeli airstrikes on a border crossing with Syria were hindering refugees trying to flee the war. Investors continue to await Israel's response to an Iranian missile attack on Oct. 1.
