  "account": "Iran has threatened to retaliate with \"painful\" force against US bases and interests if Washington and its allies proceed with a large-scale military strike. Iranian security officials claim to have received credible intelligence indicating that an attack is being prepared. This warning comes amid a prolonged standoff between the US and Iran, with no signs of it ending, despite continued violence in other regions, from the West Bank to the Red Sea. The conflict has rattled global energy markets. On Sunday, President Trump stated he was in \"deciding mode\" over the next phase, suggesting three possible outcomes: a military defeat of Iran, an economic squeeze, or a negotiated deal to end the war.",
