  "account": "Tehran has warned that any renewed conflict with the United States could be longer and more costly than the previous round of fighting, according to Iran's army spokesman, Mohammad Akraminia. The possibility of a longer war emerged after US President Donald Trump indicated he still needed to address additional targets in Iran. Diplomatic efforts to end the ongoing Middle East war have been hampered by repeated threats from both the US and Israel to resume bombardments ahead of crucial elections. Iran's Revolutionary Guards have cautioned against any new attack, emphasizing that there are no geographical limitations in a conflict with America, as stated by Revolutionary Guards spokesman Hossein Mohebbi. Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi expressed hope that the other side would show rationality and choose diplomacy, while maintaining Iran's readiness for both defense and diplomacy. The situation has caused worry among Iranians, with some residents expressing a sense of helplessness in the face of escalating threats.",
