        "summary": "Iran has labelled Elon Musk's Starlink satellite internet infrastructure as a legitimate target for attack, highlighting its presence in countries like Bahrain, Kuwait, and the United Arab Emirates, according to state media. This threat follows Iran's Revolutionary Guard's warnings against 18 major US tech firms, including Microsoft, Google, and Tesla, in retaliation for the killings of Iranian leaders in joint US-Israel strikes. The escalation coincides with US President Donald Trump's diplomatic efforts to end the conflict while threatening to intensify the US-Israel campaign against Iran.",
