Qatar reopens embassy in Damascus, signaling a diplomatic thaw with Syria's new leadership.

Qatar has reopened its embassy in Damascus, marking the second country to do so since Islamist-led rebels ousted President Bashar al-Assad. The reopening comes 13 years after it closed due to Syria's civil conflict and reflects foreign governments' efforts to re-establish ties with Syria's new leadership. The European Union is also preparing to reopen its diplomatic mission, while the US, UK, and France have sent delegations to Damascus.
