Life in the Gulf state has swiftly returned to normality after a night of fear and uncertainty.
Doha, Qatar – After a night of fear and uncertainty following Iran’s attacks on the United States military base in Qatar, life in the Gulf state has swiftly returned to normality.
Iran fired 19 missiles at the US’s Al Udeid airbase on Monday. The Qatari defence forces intercepted 18, Ministry of Interior officials confirmed in the hours after the attack.
The base is located 35 kilometres (21 miles) from Doha, but the incoming barrage of missiles flew over the capital, which had become gripped with tension.
In the preceding hours, the US and Britain had advised their citizens to shelter in place.
