A press conference took place late on Saturday between officials from Qatar's Ministry of Interior (Mol), Ministry of Defence (MOD), and Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA).
Major General Abdullah Al Muftah, Director of the Public Relations Department at Mol, assured that the situation in Qatar is stable, noting authorities responded to 114 reports of falling debris across various parts of the country.
He confirmed that eight people were injured as a result of missile fragments, with one of them in a critical condition.
Staff Lt. Col. Nasser Mohammed Al Kubaisi, Acting Director of the Directorate of Morale Guidance at MOD, also briefed the press on the current situation.
He confirmed that 65 ballistic missiles and 12 drones originating from Iran were detected, noting that 63 missiles and 11 drones were shot down before reaching their targets.
"Due to the intensity and multiple directions of the attacks, two ballistic missiles reached Al-Udeid Air Base and a drone targeted one of the early warning radars, with no human casualties reported," he explained.
Ibrahim Al-Hashmi, Director of the Media and Communications Department at MOFA, reiterated Qatar's rejection of Iran's aggression on the country, slamming as "a blatant violation of its national sovereignty".
The renewed targeting of Qatari territory undoubtedly reflects no goodwill and undermines the foundations of understanding upon which bilateral relations between the two countries were built," he said.
