About the episode

A coordinated 400-million-barrel oil reserve release by 32 countries responds to escalating Middle East tensions as three commercial vessels are struck in the Strait of Hormuz. Israel continues military operations in Beirut and Tehran while Dubai Airport faces its second drone attack, injuring four people near the international terminal. A US military investigation reportedly finds American forces responsible for a strike on an Iranian school that killed 175 people, mostly children, while Australian authorities investigate threats made by an Iranian women's football team handler on the Gold Coast.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
