In response to the attack on the world’s largest natural gas field South Pars Gas Field located in Iran, Tehran has targeted gas units of three neighboring countries.
SNPNEWS.IN News (Gurmail Kamboj): In response to the attack on Iran’s South Pars Gas Field by Israel on March 18, Tehran launched a large-scale missile attack on gas units of three Gulf countries on the night of March 18-19.
The most damaged by Tehran’s attacks has been the commercial city of Ras Laffan in Qatar, which is famous for being the world’s largest LNG refinery and export hub. Apart from this, Iranian missiles have also been fired at the Al Hosan gas fields near Riyadh in Saudi Arabia and the UAE.
The UAE has shut down the Habshan gas facility in the wake of the damage caused by the Iranian attack, further deepening the already ongoing LPG/LNG crisis in the region. After the attack, Saudi Arabia says that whatever mistrust remained in Iran has now disappeared.

Qatar’s Foreign Ministry has declared two Iranian diplomats and their staff “foreigners who are not welcome in their own country” and given them 24 hours to leave the country.
Iran and its allied militia groups continue to retaliate in the Middle East – launching missile attacks on Dubai, Qatar, Kuwait, Iraq, Bahrain and Saudi Arabia, as well as intercepting and stopping these drones. Tehran’s retaliatory air strikes on Israel have killed four people in Tel Aviv and the occupied West Bank.
Israel has stepped up its operations against Hezbollah in the Lebanese capital Beirut. In addition, Iran’s Intelligence Minister Ismail Khatib has been killed by Israel in an airstrike in Tehran, which has also been confirmed by Iranian President Masoud Pazakhstani.
