The U.S. dollar advanced against its major counterparts in the New York session on Friday, amid uncertainty over the Federal Reserve's rate-hike path.

U.S. treasury yields rose, with the benchmark 10-year yield touching 3.468 percent.

Investors digested comments from Fed officials indicating that borrowing costs would remain elevated for longer.

Speaking at an event, Federal Reserve Bank of New York President John Williams emphasized on Thursday there is 'more work to do" to bring inflation down to the central bank's 2 percent target.

"Restoring price stability is essential to achieving maximum employment and stable prices over the longer term, and it is critical that we stay the course until the job is done," he was quoted as saying.

Markets currently expect that the Fed might end its tightening cycle after a 25-basis point hike at each of its next two policy meetings.

The greenback recovered to 0.6910 against the aussie and 0.6405 against the kiwi, after falling to 0.6948 and 0.6436, respectively in early deals. The greenback is seen facing resistance around 0.67 against the aussie and 0.62 against the kiwi.
