  "account": "On Saturday, explosions were reportedly heard on Iran’s Qeshm Island in the Strait of Hormuz and the southern Iranian port of Jask, according to Iranian media reports. However, there was no official confirmation from Iran regarding the source of these explosions.\n\nEarlier in the day, Iran’s semi-official Tasnim news agency announced that two missiles had struck Qeshm Island, but provided no information on possible damage resulting from the attacks.\n\nThese explosions occurred days after the United States launched strikes on Qeshm Island. A US official revealed that these strikes were limited and not a resumption of major combat operations. With the US elections approaching, regional countries had been anticipating that US President Donald Trump might resume attacks once the voting was completed. Iran has consistently stated that it would retaliate against new attacks by targeting US and Israeli facilities in neighboring countries.",
