UAE Warns of Missile Attack as Qatar Hears Explosions

Explosions and missile alerts spread across Gulf states as Iran’s retaliation widened, with Qatar reporting 3 injuries from intercepted debris, officials said.

  • The United States attacked Iran early Sunday following an Iranian strike on a Cyprus-flagged container ship in the Strait of Hormuz that caused significant engineroom damage and left a civilian crew member missing.
  • Iran's paramilitary Revolutionary Guard claimed vessels "disregarded our warnings and instructions to correct their course and proceed along the approved route. One of them" was struck by warning shot, prompting Tehran to close the Strait "until further notice."
  • On Sunday, the United Arab Emirates warned residents of incoming missile and drone attacks as explosions sounded in nearby Qatar. Missile alerts subsequently sounded in Qatar and Bahrain, home to the United States Navy's 5th Fleet.
  • Iran warned it could target "additional enemy bases in the region" if attacked again, while Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth stated online that "Iran made a poor choice" regarding the maritime strike.
  • This escalation follows President Donald Trump suggesting the interim ceasefire in the Iran war was "over," coinciding with pro-government demonstrations in Tehran on Saturday, July 11, 2026, commemorating the late Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
