Bank of England Deputy Governor BREEDEN said the larger and longer-lasting an energy shock, the more likely a policy response.

Pakistan said it repelled attacks launched from Afghanistan, detecting, tracking and intercepting inbound unmanned aerial vehicles before they reached intended targets, then carried out air and drone strikes on 10 locations inside Afghanistan. Islamabad said it does not seek escalation but will respond immediately to any violation of its sovereignty. An Afghan government spokesman said the strikes hit desert areas near Kandahar with no reported casualties or damage.
