In turn, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs strongly condemned the attack, calling it a “blatant violation of Qatar’s sovereignty, airspace, and international law.”

In a statement, the ministry said the missiles were launched by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and confirmed that Qatar‘s air defenses successfully intercepted them before they reached their target.

“Qatar reserves the right to respond directly in a manner proportional to the scale and nature of this act of aggression,” the ministry said, warning that such attacks pose a direct threat to regional security.
