  "summary": "MI5 chief Ken McCallum has warned that Iran and Russia are escalating hybrid warfare across Europe. According to Haaretz, McCallum noted that artificial intelligence could allow terrorists to develop new pathogens, describing the situation as genuinely novel.\n\nUS President Donald Trump has stated that Washington will decide its next move against Iran \"very soon\" following increased attacks on shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. Speaking outside the White House, Mr. Trump described Iran as a \"failed country\" with a collapsing economy. During a campaign event in Alaska, he warned of further action against Tehran and stated that Iran will not obtain a nuclear weapon.\n\nThe National UAE reports that at least 12 vessels have been attacked in and around the Strait of Hormuz over the past week, according to the UK Maritime Trade Operations agency. Six of these attacks occurred on Sunday, involving five tankers and a container ship. Iranian officials told Reuters that Tehran has utilized new offensive tactics to target ships in the region, with changes in tactics noted approximately 10 days ago.",
