The UK has told its citizens in Qatar to shelter in place "until further notice," Report informs via BBC.
The US embassy in Qatar suggested in a notice online that Americans do so "out of an abundance of caution". The UK government said it was issuing its warning in response to the US alert.
The warnings come after the State Department told US citizens in international locations to "exercise increased caution," after the US bombed three nuclear sites in Iran on Saturday. Iran has threatened to retaliate.
In a statement, Qatar's Ministry of Foreign Affairs said a number of countries were urging precautions, but the embassy notice did "not necessarily reflect the existence of specific threats."
"The security situation in the country is stable," the statement said, adding that "the relevant authorities are closely monitoring the situation and are ready to take all necessary measures to ensure the safety of citizens, residents, and visitors".
