أعلنت وزارة الدفاع القطرية أن القوات المسلحة اعترضت هجوماً صاروخياً جديداً استهدف قطر صباح اليوم 11 مارس. وجاء هذا الهجوم عقب إعلان وزارة الداخلية عن حالة تأهب أمني "مرتفعة" وسماع دوي انفجارات في أنحاء قطر.
The Qatari ministry of defense just put out this public safety announcement:
“Photography during wartime is considered a significant security risk because it provides the enemy with actionable intelligence that can be used for strategic advantage. Even a seemingly harmless image can facilitate the identification of precise military coordinates and reveal sensitive geographical locations with high accuracy, ultimately assisting the opposing side in analyzing and selecting targets. As the Ministry of Defense emphasizes, while a civilian may only see a simple picture, the enemy views it as vital information that can compromise national safety and operational security.”
HE @MBA_AlThani_ in an interview with SkyNews:
It wasn’t expected to see this amount of ballistic missiles and drones flying to the region, specifically to Qatar. Regarding the attacks on my country, there are claims that they are attacking military targets; the attacks were not only on military targets. They targeted civilian infrastructure, energy infrastructure, and different Qatari assets.
