The Washington Post cited a senior official's report, stating that Tehran has informed Qatar: If the United States launches a military attack on Iran, Iran will strike targets within Qatar.

The paper wrote: "Tehran recently informed Doha that in the event of an American attack on Iran, it would retaliate against Qatar."

According to the report, Iran has clearly stated that the main targets in such a scenario would be the Al-Udeid Air Base located in Qatar - a base that houses U.S. troops.

Additionally, the report noted that Iraq is concerned about the potential for conflict to escalate. The local "Asaib Ahl al-Haq" (Kataib Hezbollah) in Iraq has issued a warning: If the U.S. attacks Iran, the group will retaliate against the U.S.
