Good evening. It's 6PM, Wednesday, 4th March. The headlines: On the fifth day of the US-Israel conflict with #Iran, a drone strike hit an Iranian vessel in the Indian Ocean.

The US investigates an assault on a girls' school. Oil prices surge due to supply worries, as around 200 tankers are stranded in the Strait of Hormuz. #BBC #News
