Regex extract paragraph based on 2 regex match

Question

I am working on an python automation script where I want extract specific paragraph based on regex match but I am stuck on how to extract the paragraph. The following is an example showing my case:

Solution : (Consistent Pattern)

The paragraph I want to extract (Inconsistent Pattern)

Remote value: x (Consistent Pattern)

The following is the program that I am currently working on and it will be great if anyone could enlighten me!

import re
test= 'Solution\s:'
test1='Remote'
with open('<filepath>', 'r') as extract:
            
            lines=extract.readlines()

            for line in lines:
                x = re.search(test, line)
                y = re.search(test1, line)
                if x is not y:
                    f4.write(line)
                    print('good')
                else:
                    print('stop')

This can be easily done using regular expressions, for example:

import re

text = r"""
Solution\s:
The paragraph I
want to extract
Remote
Some useless text here
Solution\s:
Another paragraph
I want to
extract
Remote

"""
m = re.findall(r"Solution\\s:(.*?)Remote", text, re.DOTALL | re.IGNORECASE)
print(m)

Where text represents some text of interest (read in from a file, for example) from which we wish to extract all portions between the sentinel patterns Solution\\s: and Remote . Here we use an IGNORECASE search so that the sentinel patterns are recognised even if spelt with different capitalization.

The above code outputs:

['\nThe paragraph I\nwant to extract\n', '\nAnother paragraph\nI want to\nextract\n']
