US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has landed in Abu Dhabi, the first stop on a tour of the Gulf states hit by Iran’s retaliatory strikes, an AFP journalist reports.

Rubio is to meet Emirati leaders on Wednesday, before heading to Kuwait, followed by Bahrain for a meeting of the Gulf Cooperation Council, as he seeks to reassure American allies after the signing of an initial US-Iran deal last week.
