flag U.S. forces have fully withdrawn from Syria's al-Tanf base, moving to Jordan, as part of a broader strategic shift.

U.S. forces have fully withdrawn from the al-Tanf military base in southeastern Syria, relocating to Jordan, according to multiple sources. The strategic outpost, near the tri-border region of Syria, Iraq, and Jordan, had been used for years to monitor eastern Syria and counter extremist groups. Syrian government forces have since entered the base and established new positions. The move follows a broader shift in U.S. strategy, including strengthened ties with Syria’s new government and reduced reliance on Kurdish-led forces. The U.S. maintains a limited presence at the Qasrak base in Hasakeh. The reasons for the withdrawal were not publicly explained, and its permanence remains uncertain.
