UAE Slams Iran for Missile Strike on Major U.S. Base in Qatar

The United Arab Emirates has sharply criticized Iran after a missile attack targeted Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, the region’s largest U.S. military installation. In a statement released Monday, UAE officials described the strike as a blatant violation of Qatar’s sovereignty and a dangerous escalation in Gulf tensions.

Al Udeid Air Base, located just outside Doha, is a key hub for U.S. and allied operations in the Middle East. The attack, reportedly carried out by Iran’s Revolutionary Guard, sent shockwaves through the region and drew swift condemnation from Gulf leaders.

Officials in Abu Dhabi called the incident “unacceptable” and urged the international community to hold Iran accountable for what they described as a reckless breach of international norms. The UAE also expressed solidarity with Qatar, emphasizing the importance of regional security and stability.

The strike comes at a time of heightened tensions in the Gulf, raising concerns about the safety of military personnel and the risk of further escalation. As investigations continue, leaders across the region are calling for restraint and renewed diplomatic efforts to prevent a wider conflict.
