'A betrayal': Qatar PM condemns Iranian attacks on civilian, energy sites

Slamming Iran’s strikes on Gulf states as “reckless acts” and “a betrayal,” Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al-Thani said the Iranian regime targeted Qatar’s civilian and military infrastructure, energy facilities, industrial complexes, airports, and drinking water systems.

He noted the daily attacks have disrupted operations in Qatar —supplier of around 20% of global energy— forcing temporary halts and affecting international markets, and stressed that Qatar reserves the full right to defend itself and deter threats.

Al-Thani’s statement revealed that roughly 40% of Iranian attacks target Qatari energy facilities, 25% target civilian sites, and 35% target military locations, often still impacting civilian infrastructure.
