Bahrain to resume work at embassy in Syria after UAE move

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Bahrain says it will resume operations at its embassy in Syria some seven years after it shuttered its embassy in Damascus in the early days of the civil war. The country was also expelled from the Arab League in 2011, as Riyadh and Doha backed anti-government Sunni forces trying to topple the Alawite-dominated government in Damascus.
Bahrain announces it will reopen its embassy in Damascus, Syria, a day after the UAE made the same decision.
