Ukrainian Air Force: Russian forces are attacking Kyiv with ballistic missiles.U.S. Central Command: Earlier today, the U.S. military completed an inspection and boarding of the Comoros-flagged oil tanker “Charminar” in the Arabian Sea. The tanker has now continued its voyage.According to the Iranian Students News Agency, Iraqi sources say that several violent explosions and widespread fires have occurred at the Jambul oil field in Iraqs Kirkuk province.According to Irans Fars News Agency, a spokesperson for the Iranian Revolutionary Guard stated that if Britain supports the United States in a war, it will become a clear and legitimate target.On July 26, when asked whether the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps initiated the war, a spokesperson stated that according to the agreement, passage through the Strait of Hormuz should be conducted in accordance with Iranian regulations. However, the United States, as expected, violated the agreement and announced an alternative passage route. Following this breach, the Revolutionary Guard Corps blocked the passage of vessels and struck those violating the rules. It was hoped that the United States would return to fulfilling its commitments, but this did not happen; instead, it attacked our coast, islands, and some radar facilities. Therefore, this new round of aggression once again originated from the United States. The Revolutionary Guard Corps attacks were intended to force the United States to fulfill its commitments, thus launching Operation Victory 2.

Focus shifts to UK Inflation as EUR/GBP nears a 16-month high of 0.8720

If the EUR/GBP pair is able to surpass Thursday's high of 0.8712, it will attempt to extend its two-day winning streak. The asset is finally seeking to recapture a 16-month high at 0.8720 as a result of the European Central Bank's (ECB) historic rate hike. After a brief break around 0.8600, the cross has been climbing gradually for the past two weeks on a larger scale.

 

Christine Lagarde, president of the European Central Bank, prioritized taming the hot inflation over growth prospects by announcing a significant 75-basis-point rate increase (bps). There will likely be more rises once the interest rate was raised to 1.25 percent. The central bank won't keep raising key interest rates in the future and will instead continue to emphasize data more.

 

Inflation forecasts have also been made public by the central bank, and they estimate that it will average 8.1% in 2022, 5.5% in 2023, and 2.3% in 2024. The European Central Bank (ECB) attributed the escalating pricing pressures to supply chain restrictions, increasing energy and food prices, and other factors.

 

Inflation in the United Kingdom is double digits, and long-term growth prospects are bleak. In an effort to boost consumer confidence, Liz Truss, the country's next prime minister, has proposed a cap on energy prices to shield homeowners from the approaching winter. The demand for energy rises throughout the winter due to an increase in the use of electric heaters and appliances.

 

According to the new cabinet's energy bill cap, the average home will pay no more than £2,500 in annual energy costs.

 

The UK inflation rate will continue to be a focus in the future. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) previously hit 10.1%. Since energy prices in August have remained hopeful, it is expected that the economic statistics will pick up speed.
