Iran says it launched attack on US forces at Qatar’s Al Udeid Air Base
- Early Tuesday, Iran carried out a missile attack using short- and medium-range ballistic weapons targeting a military installation in Qatar known as Al Udeid Air Base.
- The attack followed U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities and came amid efforts by Trump to secure a ceasefire between Israel and Iran.
- Iran launched 19 missiles toward the base, successfully intercepting all but one, and the single missile that hit caused no injuries as the facility had mostly been cleared by U.S. personnel.
- President Trump announced that Israel and Iran had reached a full ceasefire, which would be implemented gradually over the course of a day, describing the truce as a major achievement.
- The missile attack underscored persistent regional tensions, while Australian and U.S. leaders urged diplomacy and de-escalation to avoid further conflict.
