Iran launched a missile attack on an American air base in Qatar on Monday that caused no injuries, and President Donald Trump dismissed it as a "weak response" to U.S. attacks while urging Iran and Israel to make peace as the conflict entered its 12th day.
The attack on Al Udeid Air Base in neighbouring Qatar threatened to widen a conflict that began on June 13 with an Israeli strike on Iran targeting its nuclear programme and ballistic missiles.
