Italy says to re-open Tehran embassy on Friday

Italy says to re-open Tehran embassy on Friday Italy's embassy to Tehran will re-open on Friday after more than three months of closure because of the Iran war, the foreign ministry said on Wednesday. "Our embassy in Tehran will re-open its doors on Friday," Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani told Italy's parliament. After the US and Israel began the war with air strikes on Iran, Italy in early March decided to temporarily close its embassy and move its staff to neighbouring Azerbaijan for security reasons.
