U.S. troops withdraw from Iraq after 2024 agreement
The move shifts the remaining mission to bilateral training, intelligence sharing, and military assistance rather than a broader coalition presence.
U.S. troops have withdrawn from Iraq, according to OilPrice, ending a presence that reflected a 2024 agreement.
The outlet says the 2024 decision was based on a determination that Iraqi forces could handle the remaining ISIS threat.
OilPrice adds that Washington planned to replace the coalition mission with a narrower approach focused on bilateral training, intelligence sharing, and military assistance.
