AUD/JPY halts its winning streak on cautious mood due to Middle East tension.
The Middle East tension has escalated due to Israel’s conclusion of a series of strikes in southern Gaza.
The Australian Dollar encountered challenges stemming from the decline in the Australian money market.
AUD/JPY snaps its four-day winning streak, which could be attributed to the market caution due to geopolitical conflict in the Middle East.
