The governments of Iraq and the US have agreed on a timetable for the withdrawal of US and “international coalition” troops from the war-ravaged country, according to informed sources who spoke with Reuters.
“The plan, which has been broadly agreed but requires a final go-ahead from both capitals and an announcement date, would see hundreds of troops leave by September 2025, with the remainder departing by the end of 2026,” the British news outlet reports.
The plan would see all troops from the US-led coalition leave Iraq’s Ain al-Asad airbase in western Anbar province and “significantly reduce their presence in Baghdad by September 2025.”
