Kuwait recalled its ambassador to Iran on Tuesday, after Persian Gulf Arab allies Saudi Arabia and Bahrain severed relations with Tehran following attacks on Saudi missions by Iranian protesters. "An official source at the Kuwaiti Foreign Ministry said that the ministry recalled the Ambassador of the State of Kuwait to the Islamic Republic of Iran on Tuesday morning, against the backdrop of the attacks carried out by crowds of demonstrators," state news agency KUNA reported. The protests followed Saudi Arabia's execution of Saudi Shia cleric Sheikh Nimr al-Nimr.
