  "account": "DUBAI: Iran's Foreign Ministry announced on Wednesday that it has classified Argentina's navy and air force as terrorist organizations, a reciprocal action following Argentina's designation of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a terrorist entity in April. The IRGC, an elite military force that supports Shi'ite Muslim clerical rule in Iran and controls significant portions of the country's economy, was singled out by Argentina in April due to its support for Hizbollah, a group blamed for the 1994 AMIA bombing in Buenos Aires that killed 85 people and injured hundreds. Iran considered Argentina's navy and air force terrorists based on the principle of reciprocity, stating that the Argentine government would bear responsibility for any consequences arising from this designation. Argentina categorically rejected Iran's decision, maintaining that the measure was taken against the IRGC due to its support for Hizbollah.",
