Switzerland Announces Gradual Reopening of Embassy in Tehran

Switzerland has announced the gradual reopening of its embassy in Tehran after it was closed earlier due to security concerns.

According to officials in Bern, a limited number of Swiss diplomatic staff will arrive in Tehran this week to begin the process. The initial phase will focus on assessing conditions and ensuring a safe return to full operations.

The Swiss embassy had been shut down on March 11 amid rising security risks in the region. Authorities now appear confident enough to begin restoring diplomatic presence, signaling a possible easing of tensions.
