Iran launched missiles at a U.S. base in Qatar, with explosions heard in Doha, prompting emergency response in Washington.
Iran launched a missile strike on a U.S. military base in Qatar on Monday, firing six missiles at the Al-Udeid Air Base near Doha, officials told Axios. Explosions were reported over the capital, with sources confirming a “credible threat” had been identified earlier in the day.
The Al-Udeid facility hosts U.S. Central Command and British forces. In response to the attack, Trump administration officials are holding emergency meetings in Washington. Satellite images suggest several aircraft were moved from the base in recent weeks, possibly in anticipation of hostilities. The extent of the damage remains unclear at this time.
