Bolivia unrest: Bolivia detained 57 demonstrators during anti-government protests tied to an economic crisis, with police using tear gas and an operation to clear roadblocks aimed at restoring hospital supplies. Oil-market backdrop: Oil prices are rising as the Iran war drags on and Strait of Hormuz disruptions keep supply risks elevated, feeding broader inflation pressure across the region.
