Attack on Iran's Nuclear Sites Would Contaminate Gulf Water Supply, Qatar PM Says
Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani has warned that an attack on Iran's nuclear facilities would "entirely contaminate" the waters of the Gulf and threaten life in Qatar, the UAE, and Kuwait. The three desert states rely on desalinated water from the Gulf for their only supply of potable water, leaving them vulnerable to contamination. An attack on Iran's nuclear sites could have catastrophic consequences for the region, potentially killing millions and causing widespread devastation.
