The recent strike in Doha marks a profound shift in the Gulf’s security landscape. Qatar, a nation long seen as a neutral mediator and safe operating environment, has found itself directly drawn into the region’s conflicts.

This is not just about geopolitics, it’s about resilience, preparedness, and safeguarding people and assets in an increasingly unpredictable environment.
