Iran launched missile attacks on US military bases in Qatar and Iraq in retaliation for recent strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities. The Qatari government confirmed the attack on Al-Udeid Air Base, stating the missiles were intercepted with no casualties. Iran asserted the attacks were proportionate and did not threaten Qatar. While the US acknowledged the attacks, President Trump was briefed during the event. The attacks followed warnings from Iranian state media and the US Embassy in Qatar advising citizens to shelter in place. Tensions remain high, with threats of further escalation and economic repercussions.
