Description:
Turkey's inflation rate accelerated to nearly 70% annually in April. This is the highest annual increase since November 2022, when it reached approximately 85%. Prices rose over 3% on a monthly basis, driven by increases in alcohol, tobacco, hotels, and restaurants. While high, the April inflation rate was lower than analysts' expectations. Turkey's central bank hiked rates to 50% to combat inflation, saying tight policy would continue until prices reliably declined. Analysts say inflation may fall in the second half of 2024 but are less optimistic about the pace of decrease.

Ariel 1 launched on an American Thor-Delta rocket from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. It was also built at Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland. Britain's Science and Engineering Research Council provided all of the experiments. Five of the six experiments on board studied the relationship between solar radiation and Earth's ionosphere, and one was dedicated to studying cosmic rays. Just 10 weeks after Ariel 1 launched, it was damaged by an explosion during a high-altitude nuclear test conducted by the U.S. military. Its solar panels broke, and it was unable to transmit any more useful data after that.")
