After Iran drone attack, Qatar says citizen killed from shrapnel due to ‘military operations’

Qatar’s interior ministry says a Qatari national has been killed after sustaining injuries from shrapnel due to “military operations in the area,” after a vessel carrying him and another person went missing.

The ministry says the second individual was injured, adding that it located the missing vessel in the early hours of today after search operations that started yesterday.

It does not give the location of the incident and does not say whether the shrapnel is linked to Iranian drones launched today against US military sites in Kuwait and Bahrain.
