Explosions heard across Doha: AFP journalists

Several explosions were heard across Doha on Monday, according to AFP journalists, with the Gulf state's defence ministry subsequently saying it had intercepted a missile attack.

"Qatar announces that its armed forces intercepted a missile attack which targeted the State of Qatar," the ministry said in a statement, as Tehran presses a retaliatory campaign against Gulf states following attacks by the United States and Israel on Iran.
