US President Donald Trump claimed that Russia and Ukraine have agreed to cease attacks on each other’s energy infrastructure, despite Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s report of multiple Russian strikes on energy facilities. Zelenskyy expressed concerns over Russia’s compliance and stated that 33 individuals were injured in the latest attacks.
Oleksandra Matviichuk calls for urgent action following allegations that Russian medics are torturing Ukrainian civilians and prisoners of war, as outlined in a damning report.
NATO’s Supreme Allied Commander Europe, General Alexus Grynkewich, stated the alliance would respond decisively to any attack, emphasising a commitment to protect member states. Concerns over potential Russian aggression have heightened, with recent accusations of increased sabotage and cyberattacks from Moscow.
The pound’s recent strong rally has slowed, with traders looking for direction in a quiet week for UK economic data. Sterling is down 0.2% against the dollar, trading around $1.311, after losing over 1% in the past five days.
The dollar is near a two-week high ahead of key US data, including manufacturing PMI and Friday’s jobs report. These figures will influence whether the US Federal Reserve cuts rates by 25 or 50 basis points in September.
