America is moving forward with plans to pull out all of its approximately 1,000 military personnel currently deployed in Syria, according to a Wednesday report from the Wall Street Journal that cited three unnamed U.S. officials.
Reuters has not been able to independently confirm this reporting.
Just last week, American forces completed their departure from a key military installation in Syria, transferring control of the facility to Syrian government forces. This handover marked another indication of improving diplomatic relations between Washington and Damascus, potentially paving the way for a more extensive American military exit from the country.
According to the Journal’s sources, the remaining U.S. military positions throughout Syria will be vacated during the coming two-month period.
