Explosions rocked Qatar following an alleged Iranian missile strike on Al Udeid Air Base, a US military installation. Iranian state media claimed responsibility, broadcasting footage of the attack. While no casualties are confirmed, eyewitnesses reported missiles and blasts. Qatar closed its airspace preemptively. The US Embassy in Qatar advised Americans to shelter in place. Texas A&M University's Qatar campus, near the base, issued a shelter-in-place alert, though its planned closure in 2028 is unaffected.
