Iran launches missile attack on US base in Qatar; blasts heard over Doha

(Web Desk): Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar was attacked “by short-range and medium-range ballistic missiles originating from Iran,” CNN reports quoting a US defence official.

“At this time, there are no reports of US casualties,” the official has said. “We are monitoring this situation closely and will provide more information as it becomes available.”

Iran’s Tasnim news agency has reported that a missile operation called “Annunciation of victory” has been launched against US bases in Iraq and Qatar, Reuters reports.

US official confirms base was attacked by short-range and medium-range ballistic missiles from Iran; no casualties reported so far.

Trump says Iran gave US ‘early notice’ of Al Udeid attack

The US president dismissed the Iranian missile launch at Al Udeid Air Base as weak, suggesting that Washington will not respond to it.

“I am pleased to report that NO Americans were harmed, and hardly any damage was done. Most importantly, they’ve gotten it all out of their ‘system,’ and there will, hopefully, be no further HATE,” Trump said in a social media post.

“I want to thank Iran for giving us early notice, which made it possible for no lives to be lost, and nobody to be injured. Perhaps Iran can now proceed to Peace and Harmony in the Region, and I will enthusiastically encourage Israel to do the same.”
