• Report follows US military withdrawal from ​a ‌strategic base in ‌Syria and handing it over to Syrian forces

The United States is in the process of withdrawing all of its roughly 1,000 ‌troops from ‌Syria, the Wall ​Street ‌Journal ⁠reported ​on Wednesday, ⁠citing three US officials.

Reuters could not immediately verify the report.

Last week, the US ⁠military said it ‌completed ‌a withdrawal from ​a ‌strategic base in ‌Syria, handing it over to Syrian forces, in the latest sign ‌of strengthening US-Syrian ties that could enable an ⁠even ⁠larger American drawdown.

The Journal said that troops will withdraw from the remaining US locations in Syria over the next two months.
