<h1>Iran strikes US base in Qatar after nuclear facility bombing, 13 missiles intercepted</h1> A retaliatory missile strike by Iran targeted a US military base in Qatar following American bombardment of Iranian nuclear facilities. The President thanked Iran for advance warning that prevented casualties, with 13 of 14 missiles intercepted by air defense systems. The attack marked Iran's first direct retaliation against US forces. Iran's parliament approved potentially closing the Strait of Hormuz, through which 20% of global oil passes, though analysts doubt full implementation. Oil markets remained relatively stable despite the escalation. The administration suggested potential regime change while stating military posture remains unchanged, as both sides signal interest in de-escalation.
