Foreign Ministry of Qatar strongly condemns Iranian attack on US base

"We consider this a flagrant violation of the sovereignty of the State of Qatar, its airspace, international law, and the United Nations Charter," Offiical Spokesperson of Qatari MFA Majed Al Ansari states on X.

In his words, Qatar reserves the right to respond directly in a manner equivalent with the nature and scale of this brazen aggression, in line with international law.

He added that Qatar’s air defenses successfully thwarted the attack and intercepted the Iranian missiles.

He emphasized that the base had been evacuated earlier, "following established security and precautionary measures, given the tensions in the region."

"All necessary steps were taken to ensure the safety of personnel at the base, including Qatari Armed Forces members, friendly forces, and others. We confirm that no injuries or human casualties resulted from the attack," the statement reads.

The Foreign Ministry of Qatar warned that  the continuation of such escalatory military actions will undermine security and stability in the region, dragging it into situations that could have catastrophic consequences for international peace and security.

"We call for the immediate cessation of all military actions and for a serious return to the negotiating table and dialogue," Majed Al Ansari stressed.

He reminded that the State of Qatar was one of the first countries to warn against the dangers of Israeli escalation in the region.

"We have consistently called for diplomatic solutions to be prioritized and have stressed the importance of good-neighborliness and avoiding escalation. We reaffirm that dialogue is the only way to overcome the current crises and ensure the security of the region and the peace of its people," the statement reads. 

As it was reported, Iran attacked US bases in Qatar, Iraq.
