This is the p.m. edition of What's News,
the top headlines and business stories that move the world today.
We begin this evening with the latest in the Middle East,
where Iran and Israel carried out further strikes on one another.
In Israel,
three people were killed in a missile strike at the country's biggest oil refinery in Haifa.
Videos showed plumes of smoke emanating from the site.
The same refinery was hit by a separate strike yesterday, causing a partial shutdown.
But Israel has the advantage, with air superiority over the western part of Iran, including Tehran.
Israel's military said it killed four senior Iranian intelligence officials in a single strike there on Sunday night local time.
And today, it struck buildings belonging to Iran's state-owned media company.
The strikes came hours after the Israeli military said people in that part of the capital should leave.
The blast seemed to be heard during a live broadcast.
