A Defense Department official is confirming a missile attack from Iran on a U.S. military base in Qatar but says no casualties have been reported.
The official said Monday that Al Udeid Air Base was attacked by short-range and medium-range ballistic missiles. The U.S. is continuing to monitor the situation, said the official.
The confirmation came soon after Iran acknowledged the missile attacks, saying the attack in Qatar matched the number of bombs dropped by the United States on its nuclear sites over the weekend, signaling its likely desire to de-escalate.
Iran launched attacks Monday, retaliating for the American bombing of its nuclear sites and escalating tensions in the volatile region. AP
