Iran war pushes German inflation to its highest level since late 2023
Deutschlandfunk reports that German inflation reached 2.9% in August, the highest rate since December 2023, with energy again the main driver. The figure shows how the conflict is moving beyond the battlefield through global energy markets into Europe's domestic economy. Higher fuel and power costs are hitting households and industry while adding pressure to the ECB's monetary-policy decisions.
