Iran missile hits Qatar's Ras Laffan, world’s largest LNG hub - Watch

Iran struck Qatar’s Ras Laffan Industrial City, one of the world’s largest gas export hubs, on Wednesday, causing heavy damage to the key facility.QatarEnergy said in a statement early Thursday that “several of its Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) facilities were the subject of missile attacks, causing sizeable fires and extensive further damage” after the earlier strike. After the attack, Donald Trump warned that if Iran targeted Qatar again, the United States would retaliate and “massively blow up the entirety” of the field.“I do not want to authorise this level of violence and destruction because of the long-term implications that it will have on the future of Iran,” Trump said, adding that he would “not hesitate to do so”.The strike came after Israel attacked Iran’s major South Pars gas field. Trump also said he was not aware in advance of the Israeli operation and added that Israel had pledged not to carry out further attacks on the site.Following the strike on South Pars, Iran's President Masoud Pezeshkian had condemned the attack, warning of “uncontrollable consequences” that “could engulf the entire world.”
