00:00Katarzył a stern warning to Iran on Tuesday,
00:03saying it has crossed every red line
00:05and its attacks will not go without a response,
00:07as it also poses a, quote,
00:09grave danger to international economies.
00:12Speaking to reporters,
00:13Katarzył Foreign Ministry says Iran
00:15did not just target military facilities,
00:17but the entire Katari territory,
00:19including its Doha airport and natural gas facilities.
00:22Katar also shot down two Iranian fighter jets
00:25who entered its airspace on Monday.
00:27Red lines have already been crossed.
00:29The attack on our sovereignty,
00:31the blatant attack on our people,
00:34on the security and safety of our nation,
00:38has already crossed every possible red line.
00:41And therefore, we have taken all possible measures
00:42and we reserve the right to retaliate.
00:45Dr. Majid Al-Ansari says
00:47there are currently no open lines of communication with Iran
00:50and he made it clear that retaliation is firmly on the table.
00:53He also stressed that Katar is completely prepared
00:55with enough air defense missiles to deal with any attack.
00:59The attacks like these will not go unanswered
01:02and cannot go unanswered.
01:03And when Iran struck Katar the first time
01:08in the span of the 12-day war,
01:10we said very clearly at that time
01:12that this will merit retaliation from outside
01:15and we reserve the right to retaliate.
01:16The only reason we did not retaliate at that time
01:18was because we prioritized regional security
01:21and the possibility of a ceasefire.
01:23But the fact that this is happening again right now
01:26and that our sovereignty has been challenged in this way
01:31means that this cannot go unanswered another time.
01:35Dr. Al-Ansari also says Iran's attack on Qatar's LNG facilities
01:40forced their temporary closure
01:41and posed a grave danger to international economies.
01:44Meanwhile, Qatar's airspace remains closed.
01:47More than 8,000 transit passengers are currently stranded
01:49and are being hosted inside the country.
