Qatar summons Iran envoy after attack on US base

Qatar on Tuesday summoned Iran's ambassador to condemn an Iranian missile attack on a US military base in Qatar, which its foreign ministry described as a "flagrant violation" of its sovereignty.

Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister for Political Affairs, Majid Takhtravanchi, told a Qatari official on Tuesday that through cooperation and understanding with regional countries, Iran would not allow the United States and Israel to cause division, Iran's YJC news agency reported.

Foreign Ministers from the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries will also convene an exceptional meeting in Doha on Tuesday over Iran's missile attack on Al Udeid Air Base.
