Russian overnight missile strikes hit Kyiv region, killing at least one and wounding 13
Question
Russian overnight missile strikes hit Kyiv region, killing at least one and wounding 13
Direct answer
Renewed intensity of strikes on Ukraine’s capital sustains geopolitical risk premia in European assets and supports safe‑haven bids, marginally bullish for gold (XAUUSD) and the U.S. dollar index (DXY), while weighing on regional equity benchmarks such as the Polish WIG20 and Hun — bullish pressure on DXY.
