Iranian Attacks on Qatar

    Qatar’s collection is dominated by official accounts of missiles and drones intercepted over national territory, so Doha-area and countrywide generalized pins recur throughout the chronology. The records also document reported effects on the ground. Authorities said attacks reached Hamad International Airport, Al Udeid Air Base, power and water infrastructure at Mesaieed and Ras Laffan, and a home in Muraikh; debris and reported impacts caused injuries and fires, although the structured records report no deaths. Maritime incidents form a distinct strand. A cruise missile struck a QatarEnergy-chartered tanker in Qatari waters, and a cargo vessel was later damaged northeast of Mesaieed, though the source of that later projectile or drone remained under investigation. Most subsequent military-site claims are kept broad, and claimed damage at Al Udeid is not treated as confirmed where Qatar or the United States did not verify it. Read together, the entries show an interception-heavy campaign with limited but real casualties, industrial damage, civilian exposure and attacks extending from airspace and land facilities into surrounding waters.
