0831 GMT - Yields on U.K. government bonds fall modestly as market calm returns after the U.S. urged Israel to halt attacks on Iran's energy fields. The news brought some relief that this week's attacks on energy infrastructure would not spiral into something worse, Deutsche Bank strategists say in a note. U.K. public borrowing data released on Friday showed borrowing at 14.3 billion pounds in February, higher than the 9.3 billion pounds consensus forecast by economists in a WSJ poll. Ten-year gilt yields decline 0.4 basis points to last trade at 4.837%, Tradeweb data show. (miriam.mukuru@wsj.com)
