The US Embassy in Kuwait officially resumed operations today after it had closed due to an Iranian drone attack in March.

With US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who is on an official visit to the region, presiding, the American flag was raised over the facility.

"The ​American flag: ​a ⁠symbol of liberty, unity, and freedom now flies proudly once ​again over Kuwait City. Kuwait ​is ⁠an indispensable partner for regional security and stability," Rubio wrote in a social ⁠media ​post following the ceremony.
