After last week's fears of a terrorist attack, 18 U.S. embassies and consulates are set to reopen on Sunday. 19 outposts were shut down last week across the Middle East and Africa because of terrorist threats.

The U.S. consulate in Lahore, Pakistan, was also closed last week after an unrelated threat. It will remain closed.
