Events have moved rapidly since Iran’s attack on US military base in Qatar on Monday
Middle East crisis – live updates
It has been a confusing and chaotic 24 hours for those following the war between Israel and Iran since Tehran struck a US military base in Qatar on Monday.
That attack was seen by the US as being an attempt to respond to the US’s weekend bombing of Iran’s nuclear sites without escalating the situation.
Donald Trump, the US president, responded by calling the Iranian attack “very weak” and claimed to have intercepted 13 of 14 missiles fired.
