U.S. and Iraq agree on withdrawal plan for coalition forces by 2026, shifting military strategy.

The U.S. and Iraq have agreed on a withdrawal plan for U.S.-led coalition forces, with hundreds of troops set to leave by September 2025 and the rest by the end of 2026. This agreement, reached after over six months of discussions, aims to establish a new advisory relationship, potentially allowing some U.S. troops to remain. The plan follows escalating attacks by Iran-backed groups on U.S. forces and marks a significant shift in U.S. military strategy in the region.
