IRAN on Monday, June 23, 2025 launched a powerful destructive misile attack on the United States Air Base in Qatar, the country’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said. Al Udeid Air Base was attacked “by short-range and medium-range ballistic missiles originating from Iran,” a US defense official said.
This was in response to the US striking its nuclear facilities, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said in a statement.
“The Islamic Republic of Iran, relying on Almighty God and the faithful, proud people of Iran, will never leave any aggression against its territorial integrity, sovereignty, or national security unanswered,” the statement read.

Witnesses reported hearing loud bangs in the sky above the capital, Doha, while videos showed bright flashes in the sky as air defence systems attempted to intercept missiles.
It is the latest escalation in a conflict involving Iran, Israel and the US which has seen tensions in the Middle East soar to unprecedented levels in recent days.
About 8,000 US citizens are based there, according to the State Department, and it is home to US military’s headquarters for all its air operations in the region. Some British military personnel also serve at the base on rotation.
The Qatari government said no one had been killed or injured in the attack, and that the base had been evacuated beforehand.
It is unclear whether any of the missiles hit the base, or if there has been material damage.
The attack was first confirmed by Iranian state media, and later by the military.

A statement from the IRGC, the most powerful branch of the Iranian military, said that “Iran will not leave any attack on its sovereignty unanswered“, and added: “US bases in the region are not strengths but vulnerabilities.”
The US had previously warned Iran not to respond to its strikes on nuclear facilities and urged leaders in Tehran to agree to a diplomatic end to hostilities in the region.
The White House is yet to respond to the latest attack.
