Iran Moves Missiles Near U.S. Base in Qatar; Explosions Heard in Doha: Reports
Iran has reportedly positioned missile launchers in preparation for a potential strike on U.S. military forces in the region, according to a report by The Wall Street Journal. The move has heightened tensions across the Gulf.
A Western diplomat, speaking to Reuters, confirmed that a credible Iranian threat has been active against the U.S.-operated Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar since noon on Monday. The base serves as a key hub for American military operations in the Middle East.
Amid these developments, explosions were heard over Qatar’s capital, Doha, on Monday evening, according to eyewitnesses cited by Reuters. The nature and source of the explosions are yet to be officially confirmed.
The situation remains fluid, with regional and global security watchers closely monitoring Iran’s military posturing and its implications for U.S. assets in the Gulf.
More details are awaited.
