Iran Launches Missile and Drone Attacks on U.S. Sites in Gulf Including Qatar Base

On March 3, 2026, Iran launched missile and drone attacks targeting U.S. military sites in the Gulf region, including the Al-Udeid base in Qatar and near the U.S. consulate in Dubai. Qatar's Defence Ministry reported one missile struck Al-Udeid without casualties, while another was intercepted. Subsequently, Qatar dismantled two spy cells linked to Iran's Revolutionary Guards, arresting 10 suspects accused of espionage and sabotage. The attacks followed Iranian retaliation for U.S.-Israeli actions in the region.
