In this episode of The Story Behind with Amber Rahim Shamsi, we examine the escalating US-Iran conflict and its impact on regional security, global oil markets, and Pakistan.

Air Vice Marshal (R) Aijaz Malik and Ambassador Dr. Jamil Ahmad Khan discuss the growing tensions and the possibility of a wider regional crisis. We also explore the government's proposal to introduce daily petroleum pricing.

Asad Hassan, CEO of National Refinery Limited, and Humayun Khan, Chairman of the All Pakistan Petrol Pumps Owners Association, explain how the move could affect fuel prices, the oil industry, and consumers.

And in our What's Trending segment, we cover the alleged leak of nearly 19,000 files linked to India's largest nuclear power plant. While Indian authorities deny any breach of critical nuclear systems, the incident has reignited concerns over cybersecurity and the protection of critical infrastructure.
