U.S. stock index futures edged higher Monday, attempting to recover some ground the previous week’s sharp losses and ahead of a Federal Reserve interest rate decision later in the week. 

At 05:25 ET (09:25 GMT), Dow Jones Futures rose 145 points, or 0.4%, S&P 500 Futures gained 27 points, or 0.5%, and Nasdaq 100 Futures climbed 113 points, or 0.5%.

The main averages on Wall Street sank on Friday following a bout of airstrikes between Israel and Iran, raising tensions in the Middle East and denting market sentiment.  

The S&P 500 fell 1.1%, the NASDAQ Composite dropped 1.3% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped 1.8%, resulting in all three indices posting losing weeks.
