Eurozone inflation accelerated to another record high in June, official data showed on Friday, as Russia's war in Ukraine drives up energy prices and hammers the European economy.

A board displays the chart of Germany’s share index DAX at the stock exchange in Frankfurt am Main, western Germany, on June 15, 2022. Europe’s equities rebounded as the European Central Bank began an emergency meet to discuss volatile eurozone bond markets and soaring inflation, while investors also braced for a major US rate hike.

Consumer prices in the eurozone have hit records since November, buffeted by sky-high energy prices, which jumped by 41.9 percent over one year, caused by the fallout of Russia’s invasion of its neighbour Ukraine. The European Central Bank has said it will do whatever it takes to bring inflation back to its target level, with political pressure high to bring energy and food prices into check.

Some analysts took solace in the core inflation data, which excludes energy and food prices and came in at 3.7 percent, a tiny drop from the previous month.
