| 0:00.0 | Hey there from CNN. I'm David Rind with the five things you need to know for Thursday, May 28th. |
| 0:07.0 | You'd be forgiven for forgetting there is technically a ceasefire in place between Iran and the U.S., |
| 0:12.0 | especially after what's been happening over the last 24 hours. |
| 0:16.0 | U.S. Central Command said Kuwaiti forces intercepted an Iranian ballistic missile headed for Kuwait overnight. |
| 0:21.9 | Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said it targeted an American air base in response to |
| 0:27.0 | U.S. strikes, which a U.S. official said targeted Iranian drones and a launch site around the |

| 1:12.1 | supply, and that includes America's reserves. |
| 1:15.6 | Stick around. |
| 1:19.6 | The nation's emergency oil reserve is shrinking fast. |
| 1:23.6 | The amount of crude left is nearing its lowest level since the early 1980s. |
| 1:32.9 | That's raising new questions about energy security, gas prices, and what happens if another major disruption hits? |
