Qatar’s Ministry of Interior announced it is waiving all traffic violations recorded on Monday, June 23, 2025.

That day marked a rare and tense moment when an Iranian strike targeted the U.S. Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, causing widespread concern and prompting immediate action across the country.

In an official statement shared on the Ministry’s X (formerly Twitter) account Thursday evening, the ministry said the decision comes in recognition of the swift and responsible response by citizens and residents, many of whom rushed to their workplaces and essential service locations under urgent and unusual circumstances.

The ministry clarified that the waiver applies exclusively to violations on June 23 and stressed the importance of continued adherence to traffic laws and respect for the rights of all road users.
