British government recommends UK nationals in Qatar shelter in place
The British government on Monday issued a warning recommending that U.K. citizens in Qatar shelter in place until further notice.
The recommendation, which was issued out of 'an abundance of caution' it said, and included no details, follows a similar warning the US government issued to its citizens in the Gulf Arab State.
Qatar's foreign ministry spokesperson earlier said that the security situation in the country remained stable.

Trump thanks Iran for early notice on Qatar attack, says it helped prevent casualties
President Donald Trump thanked Iran on Monday for providing the US with 'early notice' ahead of its missile strike on a US military base in Qatar, saying the advance warning 'made it possible for no lives to be lost, and nobody to be injured.' 'Iran has officially responded to our Obliteration of their Nuclear Facilities with a very weak response, which we expected, and have very effectively countered,' Trump said in a post on Truth Social. 'I am pleased to report that NO Americans were harmed, and hardly any damage was done. Most importantly, they've gotten it all out of their 'system,' and there will, hopefully, be no further HATE,' he added. 'I want to thank Iran for giving us early notice, which made it possible for no lives to be lost, and nobody to be injured. Perhaps Iran can now proceed to Peace and Harmony in the Region, and I will enthusiastically encourage Israel to do the same. Thank you for your attention to this matter!' Developing
