Iran Says Missile Strikes Matched US Action, Deescalation Hopes Rise![]() Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Iran launched missile strikes Monday on a U.S. military base in Qatar in retaliation for the American bombing of its nuclear facilities—an escalation that further inflamed tensions across the region. Iran launched 19 missiles at the sprawling, Al Udeid Air Base with one striking the facility but causing no casualties, a Qatari military official said late Monday. Maj. Gen. Shayeq Al Hajri told reporters that the first wave of seven missiles was intercepted over the waters between Iran and Qatar. A second volley of 12 missiles followed, of which 11 were intercepted over Qatari territory, while one reached the base. The extent of the damage from the lone impact remains unclear. Later Monday, President Donald Trump said in a post on Truth Social that Israel and Iran have agreed to a new ceasefire agreement amid back-and-forth attacks from the two nations and on the heels of a retaliatory military strike from Iran to a U.S. base in Qatar. Trump posted on Truth Social that the 24-hour phased-in ceasefire will begin at approximately midnight Tuesday eastern time, giving the two countries six hours to have "wound down and completed their in progress, final missions." He said it would bring an "Official END"
