The Eleven-Year Anniversary of the Disappearance of Robert Levinson

Today marks the eleven-year anniversary of Robert Levinson’s disappearance from Kish Island, Iran. The United States remains unwavering in our commitment to bring him home.

We share our deepest sympathy with his family which has suffered from his absence for over a decade. We will not rest until the Levinson family is whole again.

Iran committed to cooperating with the United States to assist us in bringing Robert Levinson home and we call on Iran to fulfill this commitment.

The FBI has offered a $5 million reward for any information that could lead to his safe return. We call on anyone with information about this case to contact the FBI at http://tips.fbi.gov or email the FBI at levinsonfbireward@ic.fbi.gov.
