Iran Launches Missile Attack on US Base in Qatar

Iran launched a missile attack on the Al Udeid US Air Base in Qatar in retaliation for US strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, where about 10,000 US troops are stationed. Most of the missiles were intercepted, resulting in no casualties or significant damage, as confirmed by both US and Qatari officials. President Trump described Iran's response as 'very weak' and expressed gratitude for Iran's advance notice, which allowed for defensive measures. The attack drew widespread international condemnation, with Australia and the UN Secretary-General urging a return to diplomacy. Experts believe Iran's limited response was intended to signal resolve while minimizing the risk of wider conflict. Qatar reiterated its sovereignty in managing the incident and called for dialogue with Iran.
