The European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre reports a 5.6-magnitude earthquake off the coast of Aragua, Venezuela.June 28th - According to Politico, on February 28th, when US and Israeli warplanes attacked Iran, Israeli officials initially believed the alliance was entering a golden age. However, four months later, they are preparing for a future where Israel is more isolated than ever before. US Vice President Vance told Israel last week that it has virtually no friends left in the world and should not attack its only remaining powerful ally. But according to seven sources, including US and Israeli officials, Israels problems extend far beyond Vance; Vance is merely a symbol of the new normal where Israels status as a US ally no longer takes precedence over any other country. The tensions between the two sides are palpable. One source revealed that Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu was scheduled to visit Washington five times in 2025. This year, however, he only visited once, in February, and telephone contact has significantly decreased.Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu: We are close to controlling 70% of the Gaza Strip and surrounding Hamas.June 28 - According to foreign media reports on the 27th, citing official Iranian data, Irans inflation rate in June rose sharply to 88.6% year-on-year, affected by the Middle East conflict.On June 28, Iran launched a drone strike on Bahrain on Saturday, while simultaneously attacking a ship in the Strait of Hormuz, possibly in response to a US nighttime airstrike. The attacks in the Persian Gulf once again demonstrate that even with a provisional agreement between Iran and the US attempting to reach a final ceasefire, the Iran-Iraq war could still spiral out of control. This comes after the US Central Command stated that it launched strikes against Iran on June 26 in response to the attack on a merchant ship. Meanwhile, the International Maritime Organization announced on Saturday that it would widen the strait near Oman to allow two-way passage. This move could reignite tensions with Tehran, which views the strait as a key bargaining chip in ongoing negotiations with the US.

GBP/USD Price Analysis: Bearish Dollar Pressure Exposes a Drop to Near 1.2500

The GBP/USD pair has been collapsing like a house of cards since Friday, when it fell below the two-week-old resistance level of 1.2973. The asset has declined by around 3.70 percent during the last four trading sessions and shows no signs of reversal at the moment.

 

On a daily basis, the negative break of the Falling Channel has bolstered the greenback bulls. The chart pattern's top boundary is drawn from the June 2021 highs of 1.4249, while the lower boundary is drawn from the April 2021 low of 1.3669. When the Falling Channel is broken, volume expands and ticks get wider.

 

The 10- and 20-period Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) are going down at 1.2838 and 1.2945, respectively, adding to the downside filters.

 

Additionally, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) (14) has moved into the negative zone of 20.00-40.00, indicating the possibility of a new downward impulsive wave.

 

Following a colossal decline, a pullback appears imminent. As a result, investors should wait for a fall to reach the 1.2800 round level roadblock before initiating new short positions. Responsive selling at 1.2800 will pull the asset towards the 1.2600 and 1.2500 round level supports, respectively.

 

On the other hand, if the asset surpasses the psychological resistance level of 1.3000, the cable may perform nicely. This will push the pair closer to Thursday's high of 1.3090, and then to a three-week high of 1.3147.
