- Tehran said that with the strikes, it has sent out a clear message to the White House that "Iran will not leave its territorial integrity, sovereignty and national security unanswered under any circumstances."

- The Qatari Foreign Ministry has condemned the attack as a clear breach of Qatar's sovereignty, airspace, and international law.
- Iran, however, claimed that the operation posed "no threat whatsoever to our friendly and brotherly country Qatar or its people".

- Shortly before Iran launched missiles at the base, Qatar announced it had closed its airspace temporarily to ensure the safety of residents and visitors. Iran said it coordinated its strikes, prompting the airspace closure, as per reports.
- Al Udeid airbase is the largest US military installation in the Middle East, situated across the Gulf from Iran.
