As Twitchy reported just after 1 p.m. on Monday, Iran had just launched missiles at a U.S. air base in Qatar in retaliation for the bombing of its nuclear enrichment sites over the weekend. Fortunately, there were no casualties. President Trump said on Truth Social that 13 missiles had been intercepted and a fourth, which was way off the mark, was "set free."

Soon after the news broke that the air base had been attacked, New York Attorney General Letitia James posted that "we mourn for the lives lost in recent days."

Praying for our military and law enforcement personnel in harm’s way.

We mourn for the lives lost in recent days and pray for a quick end to this conflict and a lasting peace.https://t.co/8F1oxBKDQv
