Iran launched at least ten missiles towards the United States military bases in Qatar and one towards a base in Iraq, Axios' Global Affairs Correspondent Barak Ravid reported on Monday, citing an Israeli official.

The reported missile attack comes amid reports that US President Donald Trump's administration is preparing for Iran's retaliatory attack on its bases in the Gulf and positioning its missile launchers in anticipation of the attacks.
