Iran Fires Missiles at U.S. Base in Qatar in Retaliation Strike
WORLD


Iran has launched a missile attack on the U.S.-run Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, in what appears to be a direct response to recent U.S. airstrikes on Iranian nuclear sites.
According to Qatari officials, all incoming missiles were intercepted and no casualties or damage were reported.
The U.S. military confirmed the incident and has placed regional forces on high alert.
Iran said the strike was symbolic and proportionate to the number of bombs dropped on its territory.
The country also reportedly gave prior warning to avoid loss of life.
In the aftermath, several Gulf nations, including Qatar and the UAE, temporarily closed their airspace.
U.S. President Donald Trump held an emergency meeting but decided against an immediate military response.
The situation remains tense, with global leaders urging calm to prevent further escalation.
