Qatar's Defense Ministry intercepted multiple drones fired from Iran early March 28, the first such attack on the Gulf state in over a week amid ongoing Iranian missile and drone barrages targeting US bases in Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and especially the UAE. Since late February strikes killing Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran has launched over 5,000 projectiles at these nations, as condemned by UN Security Council Resolution 2817 on March 11. Gulf states report successful interceptions but weigh military responses, while Iran-backed Houthis signal potential Red Sea escalation; no ceasefire or diplomatic progress has emerged to halt the exchanges.
