Hyderabad, June 23 -- Iran launched several retaliatory missiles on Monday evening, June 23, targeting US military bases in Qatar and Iraq.

Qatar is home to Al Udeid Air Base. It is reported that Iran launched six powerful missiles at the air base. Al Udeid, the largest US military facility in the Middle East and host to around 13,000 troops, was recently evacuated amid the escalation between Washington and Tehran.

The Ain al-Assad base housing US troops in western Iraq was also targeted, an Iraqi security official who was not authorised to comment publicly told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity. It wasn't immediately clear if there was damage to the Iraq base or any injuries.
