  "summary": "Iran has warned the US of a \"faster, heavier and more painful response\" as military strikes between the two countries have resumed. According to Iran's parliament speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, the era of proportionate responses has come to an end.\n\nThe US has imposed sanctions and a naval blockade on Iran, which US Treasury chief Scott Bessent says are working, citing China's dwindling purchases of Iranian oil.\n\nThe resumption of attacks comes after a roughly month-long period of quiet, and follows a series of incidents including Iran's claim to have struck a US military vessel in the Strait of Hormuz, which the US military has denied, calling it a \"total lie\".",
