This is the Global News Podcast from the BBC World Service.
I'm Celia Hatton, and it's 1600 GMT on Tuesday, the 3rd of March. These are our main stories. Israel says it's carrying out simultaneous strikes in Tehran and Beirut. With the US-Israeli war with Iran threatening the oil and gas supply chain, it's not only Middle Eastern countries facing an uncertain future. South Korea needs oil and gas to run its power generators and also to feed its enormous petrochemical industry. It's a huge part of South Korean economy.
And we go to Nigeria to look at deep divisions within the Anglican church over the appointment of the first female archbishop of Canterbury.
Day four of the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran and day four two of the fallout from that conflict. We're focusing this edition on what's happening in the region, but also how the war is being viewed far away from its original Iranian targets. Israel has launched a new wave of airstrikes on Tehran and on the Lebanese capital, Beirut. The Israeli military has held a briefing. Nadav Shoshani is a spokesperson.
Our forces, along with the U.S. armed forces, continue degrading the Iranian regime's military capabilities. We have focused on targeting ballistic missile launchers, command and control centers, underground bunkers, and of course, key Iranian regime leadership figures.
Overnight, IDF troops were positioned in southern Lebanon at several points near the border area as part of an enhanced forward defense posture. Let me be clear, this is not a ground maneuver into Lebanon. It is a tactical step to create an additional layer of security for the residents of northern Israel.
Hundreds of people have fled their homes in Beirut. And Israel has warned that thousands of people in villages near the border must also go. The Lebanese army is reported to be pulling back from positions in the south. Our correspondent Lina Sinjab is in Beirut. I've just come down to the promenade on the seaside of Beirut. This is an area that's normally known for people enjoying the seaside, but now...

Chapter 2: How is the conflict affecting global oil and gas prices?
by Hezbollah to conduct such a raid or indeed, you know, that they could get closer to the border to continue with their rocket fire because they have already been in the north of Israel since Hezbollah really sort of announced that it was entering into this new conflict. And of course, you take into consideration here that that had been in many ways anticipated because Hezbollah is so financially and ideologically linked to Iran that
There have been these rocket and drone attacks that have been going on, affecting people in the north of Israel. Some people, you know, suffering minor injuries there today. People rushing into their air raid shelters once again. Jolan, just to focus on the wider conflict for a moment. There's been a lot of talk about the strategic objectives of this war. What do you think the Israelis really want to achieve?
What they have been saying consistently when they've been laying out the case for war is that they want to target all aspects of the threat that they see as very sort of real and immediate to them from Iran. And so that is why they talk about. Tämä on tärkeä asia.
Iran has all around this region. The case has really very much been laid out that Iran, after what's happened with the war that's gone on in Gaza, where Hamas and Islamic Jihad have been
So weakened after the 12-day war that Israel started with Iran last summer with the U.S. joining in at the end where nuclear and military sites were really attacked, that this was a moment of weakness for Iran. And then the fact that, you know, the U.S., Israel's closest ally, came so fully on board with these attacks, that is what really sort of, you know,
Jolan Nell. In Iran the United States says its forces have destroyed Revolutionary Guard command and control facilities as well as air defence capabilities and missile and drone launch sites. The Israeli military says it has bombed the presidential office in Tehran.
Iran's Red Crescent says 787 people have been killed in the country since the airstrikes began on Saturday. The authorities in Tehran are staying defiant. They say the gates of hell will open more and more on the U.S. and Israel. Gonche Habibi Azad from BBC Persian spoke to Clive Myrie about the messages the service had been receiving from people inside Iran. Clive is reporting from Israel at the moment.
It's very difficult to know exactly what's going on inside Iran because of the internet outage. But some people managed to connect momentarily to tell the outside world about what's going on. From what I've heard today, Isfahan has been the center of the attacks. Tehran has been calmer than yesterday. And it seems like the strikes weren't that much as yesterday. I've heard that children are really afraid of what's going on.
and how the situation is unfolding, but some people, some anti-establishment ones that I've been talking to, are cheerful about some of the strikes. And so far Iran's Red Crescent Society has said that 787 people have been killed. They haven't made a distinction between civilians and terrorists.

Chapter 3: What are the implications of Iran's missile strikes on Gulf states?
Gonche Habibi-Azad BBC-Persian puheenjohtaja. Nearly 500 bishops are meeting in the capital, Abuja. But the appointment of Archbishop Mullali has deepened divisions in the Anglican church. Some conservative Christians insist only men should serve as bishops. BBC's Lebo de Seco reports from the Nigerian city of Lagos.
Päiväkirja Lagossa, samaa liturgiaa ja puhelujaa kuin monilla anglialaisilla, mutta globaali kirkko on kaukana yhdistettyä. Täällä Nigeriassa valmistautuminen naiselle kenttäpäiväkirjallisuudesta yhdistää mielikuvia.
Silloin, kun olin syntynyt, olin maahanmuuttajana. En ole koskaan ollut näin. En usko, että se on kristillinen. Jos katsotaan Bibliasta, jossa ei ollut naisia. Se on oma ajatukseni. Maahanmuuttajana olen maahanmuuttajana Englannissa. En usko, että se menee hyvin. Jumala on luonut meidät naisille ja naisille. Jumalan tehtävä on yksityinen asia.
Jos sinä olet kutsuttu, voit olla mies tai nainen, sinun täytyy kutsua Jumalalle.

Gafcon says it has not left the Anglican church, rather that it is the true church. This week's vote will only deepen divisions, as professor Dermot McCulloch, retired professor of the history of the church at the University of Oxford, explains.
Tämä on syrjintä syrjintää. Se on syrjintä laajentamista Gafconin ryhmien ylöspäin vaarallisista ääniä viime vuosina. Ja he laittavat sen hyvin imperialistista, kolonialistista kieltä. He haluavat olla englantilainen järjestelmä.
kuin vain hieman siitä, mitä he ovat nyt. Ja se on hyvin agressiivista asiaa tehdä. Tämä on yksi ryhmä, joka on yksilöllinen, menossa Afrikan keskusteluun, jossa on tietty identiteetti, joka ei todennäköisesti onnistuisi monille englantilaisille kulttuurille. Se on yksilöllinen episkopi, joka kutsuttaa asioita,
Perhaps the solution lies with the youth. 34-year-old Alexander Olosinde explains that the connection to Canterbury is important to him, in spite of its sometimes more liberal theological stance.
Common ground might be hard to find. The relationship between the First Anglican Church and the rest of the world is looking increasingly precarious. Lebo de Seco. Still to come in this podcast. These are really unimaginable images that are about as shocking for people living and doing business here as it would be to see a city like Miami being bombed. The emotional effects of war.

Chapter 4: How is South Korea responding to the energy crisis?
There was a drone strike on the U.S. embassy, essentially overnight. Two drones, the defense ministry in Saudi Arabia said, not very much damage. A fire started, but it was limited, and the Saudis said that there were no injuries. We do know that the embassy there put out an alert to its citizens, telling them to stay away from the building and to shelter in place, as they say, which is what happened in Kuwait yesterday.
When we heard that the embassy had been hit, that was never confirmed, although there was smoke in the area as well as emergency vehicles, the Americans put out such an alert. So it seems that the Iranians are targeting, when it comes to U.S. targets, not just military bases, but also civilian ones.
Barbara, should we be surprised that so many drone strikes are hitting key US targets in the region? Is it precisely because the Iranians are using drones successfully? Well, there hasn't been.
Se on ollut paljon vaikeaa. Missiilejä, joita lähetetään, missiilejä, jotka lähetetään, ovat suurin piirtein järjestäneitä. Järjestäjät ovat paljon vähemmän yksilöitä ja he saavat järjestäjiä paljon helpommin kuin missiilejä. Ja heidän vaikutuksensa fyysisesti on joitain vaikeaa.
Mutta psykologisesti se on suurempi vaikutus, luulen, koska iranit voivat luoda tämän tunnen turvallisuudesta alueella. Se on heidän tavoitteensa luoda tunnen kaosia ja myös ekonomisia ruutuja. Esimerkiksi he tarkoittivat ensimmäistä kertaa energiainfrastruktuuria viikonloppuun, jossa Suomi on tullut.
main oil refinery in saudi arabia and also liquid natural gas targets here in qatar i should say they they targeted them they didn't necessarily hit them because again some of them were blown out of the sky but the result of that even though the facilities themselves were not that much damaged the result was that production stopped and that has had a huge impact on the market so in a way their biggest weapon
kun puhutaan luonnollisuudesta alueella, se on paikallisuus, koska ne voivat välttää asioita melko helposti, koska se on tuotantohubi, jolla voidaan laittaa droniitin tukemaan alueita. Se ei oteta alueet toimimaan, mutta se tarkoittaa, että ne pysyvät turvallisuuden takia, ja se on suuri vaikutus kulkuun ja myös energia-industrialle. Ja turismiin, minun pitäisi lisätä, koska turismi on toinen iso asia täällä Golfissa.
What about the political impact of all of this? I mean, it's been said that the Iranians have been targeting the Gulf states in an effort to drive a wedge between those states and the Americans to put pressure on the US to stop the war. But is that happening or are we seeing more unity between those targeted countries and the Americans?
Se on vaikea ajatus, koska arabilaiset ovat alussa olleet vahvistuneita. He sopivat Yhdysvalloista, ettei käydä vahvistusta. He sanoivat, että tällaista tapahtumaa voisi tapahtua. He tunnevat, että tällaista voisi tapahtua.

Chapter 5: What are the divisions within the Anglican Church in Nigeria?
They really wanted to show these images to project calm and to project strength. We heard that Amazon's cloud competing business said that drones have hit three of its facilities in the United Arab Emirates as well as in Bahrain as well. So foreign global businesses are also being affected. Do you see a situation in which companies decide to pull their operations, to pull their people out of places like Dubai?
If Iran kept on these attacks for, I think, over a week or two at the current tempo, or if Iran went after really close to the jugular vein of Gulf states, I would say attacking things like power, power plants.
jatketaan tietokenttejä yhä enemmän ja suuremmin, jatketaan internetin lopputuloksia tai veden desalinaatioita, ilmastonvaihtoehtoja. Kulttuurit ovat todella ilmastonvaihtoehtoisia, eikä niitä ole, todennäköisesti yrityksille, ja luulen, että nähdään suurempi liikkuvuus. Eilen Abu Dhabi loppuun yöllä yöllä yöllä.
Tämä on kuitenkin yksi asia, joka on kuitenkin kuitenkin kuitenkin Eläimet, Iran ja Israel, nämä suurimman ideologisen eläimet, kärsivät, ja kärsivät ympäri arabia-gulfista. Se on se, mikä on kärsivännyt ympäri, yleensä sivuilijat niissä maissa. Toivon, että ennen kuin on karikotunut, melkein karikotunut kuvan Dubaiin, jossa on vain rikkoja ihmisiä ja Lamborghinia.
Olen kuitenkin järjestänyt tämän äärettömän vastauksen, että kuulijat ymmärtävät, että moni ihmisistä maailmassa, kuten Irakissa, Palestineissa, Ukrainaissa ja Sudanissa, on tullut rakentamaan elämäänsä Persian Gulfin valtioissa. Ja kaikkien heidän ongelmien kohdallaan, erilaisissa tapauksissa, kuten heidän ulkopolitiikassaan, nämä maat ovat...
Professor Monica Marks. Already the effects of the conflict have spread far beyond the Middle East, a reminder of the interconnected world we live in.
As we've mentioned earlier in this podcast, Iran has blocked the Strait of Hormuz. A large proportion of the oil tankers normally passing through that strait are headed for countries in East Asia. With oil and gas prices surging, countries like South Korea are now looking to secure supplies from outside the Middle East. Our correspondent Jake Kwan is in Seoul, and he told me more.
If you look at the map, South Korea is at the bottom half of the Korean peninsula and its road to the land is blocked by North Korea. So South Korea is practically an island and just like its neighbor Japan. So nearly all of its energy fuel is imported, whether that's oil, gas or uranium for the nuclear power. And in an average year, South Korea is
import some 70% of its oil from the Gulf countries like Saudi Arabia and Kuwait and Qatar, which are all embroiled in this conflict. Now, Saudi Arabian oil, maybe they can buy them from the ports in the Red Sea away from Iran, but those are coming from Iraq, UAE, Kuwait, Qatar. These have to pass through the Strait of Hormuz. So what happens if that strait gets shut down?
