The US Embassy in Kuwait resumed operations on Wednesday during a visit by Secretary of State Marco Rubio. This comes months after services were suspended in March due to Iranian attacks.

The embassy, located in Kuwait City, will immediately resume emergency services for American citizens while other services will be phased in, according to a State Department spokesperson.

The State Department shut down embassy operations in Kuwait and Saudi Arabia in March following Iranian drones firing at the missions after US-Israeli strikes on Iran. Rubio attended a flag-raising ceremony at the embassy during his visit to Kuwait for talks with allies on ending the war in Iran.

“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,” he said in a social media post following the ceremony.
