European and Israeli officials told the media on the 14th that all signs indicate the United States is about to launch airstrikes against Iran within 24 hours, although the scale and exact timing of the operation remain unclear.
Sources pointed out that all signs indicate the US is about to carry out an attack, but this could also be a tactic commonly used by the current administration to keep everyone alert. Unpredictability is part of its strategy.”
Meanwhile, an Iranian official stated that Iran is monitoring the US military stationed at Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar and is prepared to take “retaliatory measures.”
The official noted that under the current circumstances, diplomatic efforts by Qatar or any other country are meaningless, and that the United States is “not serious about negotiations.”
The official urged regional countries “not to allow their territory to be used by one country to attack another.”
Another senior Iranian official pointed out that Iran has asked US allies in the region to stop the United States from attacking Iran.
The official said: “Iran has told regional countries including Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Turkey that if the United States attacks Iran, American bases within their countries will be subject to strikes.”
Some US personnel stationed at Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar have now confirmed they will be evacuated.
