Iran missiles hit US base in Qatar amid nuclear facility retaliation

Iran launched missiles at the US military's Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar as part of Operation Bashayer Al-Fath, or Glad Tidings of Victory, in retaliation for US strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claimed responsibility, stating the strikes were a direct message to Washington and its allies.

Iran's National Security Council confirmed their response did not pose a threat to Qatar and that the number of missiles launched was equal to the number of bombs used by the US in its attack on Iranian nuclear sites.

Qatar's Defense Ministry confirmed its air defenses intercepted the missile attack, and no casualties were reported.

Following the incident, the Embassy of the Republic of the Philippines in the State of Qatar issued an advisory for all Filipino nationals to shelter in place until further notice.
