After President Trump said Iran seemed ready to make a deal to end the war but the terms weren't good enough, Tehran has been carrying out further missile and drone strikes on US allies across the Middle East. The Iranian foreign minister has denied that Iran has targeted civilian or residential areas in the Middle East - only US military targets. And he said the war would end when Iran was "certain" it could not be repeated. We hear from our Persian service correspondent about what she makes of these claims, and what people inside Iran are worrying about. Also: Iran warns the United Arab Emirates to begin evacuating the port zones in Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Fujairah. So are people heeding these warnings? We hear from our correspondent in Dubai. Tehran continues to fire missiles towards Israel, most of which were intercepted by air defences. But at least one got through, as we hear from our correspondent in Tel Aviv. And how the war is impacting the oil industry and pushing up prices - we hear how increased use of wind and solar energy could give consumers more predictability in terms of cost.

  • This is an extra edition of the Global News Podcast from the BBC World Service.

  • Hello, I'm Oliver Conway with the latest on the US-Israeli war on Iran.

  • We're recording this at 13 hours GMT on Sunday the 15th of March.

  • Despite 16 days of US and Israeli strikes,

  • Iran continues its attacks in the Gulf and has warned the UAE to begin evacuating the port zones in Abu Dhabi,

  • Dubai and Fujairah.

  • We report from the scene of an Iranian missile strike in Israel.

  • We saw smoke rising, we quickly got here,

  • and the impact must have been just a few minutes beforehand.

  • And later?

  • There's been certainly a wake-up, I think,

  • from governments to say that the reliance on fossil fuels may not be something we can keep going with,

  • especially when we have a shock like what's happening in Iran at the moment.

  • Has the disruption to the oil market made people think again about renewable energy?

  • For 16 days, Iran has been pounded by the US and Israel.

  • President Trump says 100% of its military capability has been destroyed.

  • And yet, Iranian drones and missiles are continuing to hit Gulf Arab states and Israel.

  • Some of America's original war aims, for regime change, unconditional surrender,

  • or even just for a say in choosing Iran's next leader,

  • are no longer being talked about by the Trump administration.
