• The U.S. launched fresh strikes on Iranian targets to degrade capabilities used for attacks on commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, the military said..

• Oil prices surged this week, typically weighing more on the pound than the dollar due to the UK's reliance on energy imports and persistent inflation..

• Meanwhile, U.S. consumer inflation slowed more ​than ⁠expected in June, tempering expectations for U.S. Federal Reserve policy tightening.
