AI Summary

medium article 2 min

Qatar's Ministry of Foreign Affairs has stated that Iran did not notify it of incoming missile attacks, and there is currently no communication between the two countries. The attacks, which began on Saturday, targeted Qatar as part of a retaliatory campaign by Iran in response to US-Israeli strikes. Iranian targets included all Qatari territory, with attempts made to attack Hamad International Airport, which were thwarted by Qatar's military defensive measures. Almost 8,000 people were stranded due to airspace closures caused by the war. Iranian jets were also shot down on Monday after entering Qatari airspace despite warnings. The Iranian ambassador in Qatar was summoned and told that the attacks could lead to a deterioration of relations between the two countries.
