An oil tanker has come under attack in the Strait of Hormuz, wounding four people on board.

Ships traveling the strait have been threatened since the U.S.

and Israel launched their assault on Iran.

NPR's Camilla Dominovsky reports the conflict is starting to rattle global oil markets.

OPEC has announced an increase in output following the U.S.

and Israeli strikes on Iran.

Saudi Arabia led the discussions that resulted in an agreement to raise output by more than 200,000 barrels per day.

The group is looking to regain market share lost to other producers.

The conflict in Iran is expected to pose serious risk to oil supplies.

The film, one battle after another, is now the frontrunner for Best Picture at the Oscars.

The drama took the top prize last night at the Producers Guild Awards in Los Angeles, adding to wins at the Directors Guild, the Golden Globes, and the BAFTAs.

The Academy Awards will be presented on March 15.

Israel has launched a new wave of airstrikes on Tehran the second straight day of attacks on the Iranian capital.

That's NPR's Greg Myhre reporting.

Israel says its strikes have killed 40 top Iranian military officials.

Israel did not provide evidence, and neither Iran nor the United States immediately commented on that claim.
