Qatar’s armed forces intercepted another missile attack targeting the country on Wednesday, the Defense Ministry said, as authorities issued warnings about a heightened security threat.
The ministry, however, did not give any details about injuries or damage.
Local media reported explosions in the skies over the capital Doha from interception operations.
The Interior Ministry earlier issued a third warning on Wednesday about a “high-level security threat,” urging residents to remain in their homes for safety.
Regional escalation has flared since Feb. 28 when Israel and the US launched a joint attack against Iran, killing more than 1,200 people and injuring another 10,000.
Tehran has retaliated with drone and missile strikes targeting Israel, Jordan, Iraq, and Gulf countries that are home to US military assets.
