Grappling with the Iran war energy crisis | Global News Podcast
As the US-Israel war with Iran continues to disrupt the price and supply of fuel, governments around the world are introducing measures to control demand and relieve cost pressures.
Several Asian countries – which get the majority of their oil and gas shipped from the Gulf through the Strait of Hormuz – have introduced four-day work weeks or work-from-home rules to save gasoline. The Philippines has declared a national energy emergency, while Cambodia has cut fuel taxes.
Filling stations in Germany have been told they can only raise their prices once per day. And in Australia, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has made a rare televised address to the nation, warning that the economic shocks of the war will last for months. Mr Albanese also cautioned against panic-buying, urging Australians to “go about your business and your life, as normal”.
We speak to the BBC’s business correspondent Michelle Fleury about the resilience of the global economy, and the measures being taken to deal with the economic impacts of the war in the Middle East.

Adaptations, remakes and reboots are all the rage right now, and thereās often one question that crops up – why?
Carrie, Prime Video’s new TV series based on Stephen King’s debut novel, has been no exception.
It’s not the first time the tale of high school bullies and supernatural powers has been adapted for the screen.
Director Brian de Palma’s 1976 movie version is a horror classic, with some of its most famous scenes and imagery widely considered iconic within the genre.
But the cast and creator of the latest version, which drags Carrie’s story forward 50 years into a world of social media, have been telling BBC Newsbeat’s Eleanor Doyle why they believe it’s still relevant in 2026.

OpenAI has announced it will not release its latest AI model due to safety concerns.
Its GPT-6.1 Astra system, which performs tasks like browsing the web and using apps by itself, “didn’t quite meet the bar” of the company’s standards, according to Saachi Jain, head of safety systems at OpenAI.
It comes as breaches by major AI firms’ models intensify the debate about risks posed by the tech – with Anthropic underlining its concerns AI might threaten humanity as it prepares to go public.
