Three diplomatic sources informed a news agency that some US personnel at a military base in Qatar have been ordered to leave.
Foreign media notes no immediate statement from the US Embassy in Doha; recall that ahead of June’s US airstrikes on Iran, certain personnel were withdrawn from Middle East bases. Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar hosts over 10,000 US troops, America’s largest in the region.
Yesterday, Qatar warned that any US-Iran military clash would have severe, devastating regional impacts, with Foreign Ministry spokesman Majid Al-Ansari stressing dire consequences beyond the area during a Doha press conference.
