🇮🇷 Iran Launches Missile Strike on U.S. Base in Qatar
On June 23, 2025, Iran launched a surprise missile attack on Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, the largest U.S. military base in the Middle East. The attack was a retaliation for recent American airstrikes on three Iranian nuclear sites.
According to official sources, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) called the strike part of a military operation named "Annunciation of Victory", labeling it a “devastating and powerful” response.
“We targeted the U.S. Central Command and 379th Air Expeditionary Wing far from civilian areas,” said an IRGC commander.
🎯 Target & Interception:
Iran fired 14 missiles toward the base. U.S. and Qatari defense systems intercepted most of them, and no casualties or major damage were reported.
Qatar condemned the missile launch as a "flagrant violation of sovereignty," while confirming that Iran had given advance notice to prevent casualties — a move seen as an attempt to avoid full-scale war.
🇺🇸 Trump Speaks on Truth Social
In a message on his Truth Social account, President Trump confirmed that Iran had warned Qatar in advance. He said:
“13 of 14 missiles were intercepted. The remaining posed no threat.”
He also encouraged de-escalation:
“Perhaps Iran can now proceed to peace and harmony in the region. I will enthusiastically encourage Israel to do the same.”
Trump's message followed a brief Truth Social outage, allegedly caused by the Iranian-linked hacker group “313 Team.”
🌐 Global Reactions & What’s Next
While the missile attack marks a serious escalation, the absence of casualties and Iran’s calculated warning indicate a desire to avoid broader conflict. Still, tension in the region remains extremely high, with world leaders calling for calm and diplomacy.
