14:44Now PlayingIran has stepped up its attacks on energy infrastructure across the Gulf and there have been more strikes on shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, further threatening oil and gas supplies and a global energy crisis.
The International Energy Agency has ordered the largest release of stockpiled oil reserves in its history, in an attempt to stabilise global oil prices which have soared since the start of the US and Israeli attacks on Iran. 32 countries have agreed to release around 400 million barrels of crude oil onto world markets.
In Oman, oil storage tanks in the port of Salalah caught fire with reports they had been hit by drones. The UAE and Qatar reported more attacks from Iranian missiles and drones.
Israel launched another wave of strikes at what it said were Hezbollah targets in Lebanon, saying it's in response to rockets fired at Israel.
Clive Myrie presents BBC News at Ten reporting by Simon Jack, Ellie Price, Wyre Davies, and Sarah Smith.
