Shakira has postponed scheduled concerts in the Middle East amid escalating tensions linked to the ongoing conflict involving Iran. The Colombian singer was due to perform in Doha, Qatar, on April 1, but the event is now listed as “to be confirmed,” while her appearance at a music festival in the United Arab Emirates on April 4 has been rescheduled to November.
The disruptions come as security risks have increased across the region, with reports of missile and drone activity in several countries. US authorities have also issued travel warnings, urging heightened caution due to potential threats to public gatherings and infrastructure.
Other events in the region remain scheduled, but uncertainty continues as the situation develops.
