ERBIL — The Biden Administration is not considering the withdrawal of US forces from Syria, despite previous sources indicating such a plan.

This follows a report by Foreign Policy magazine, stating that sources from the US State Department and Pentagon disclosed considerations for withdrawing forces from Syria. The magazine noted ongoing discussions within the US administration regarding the timing and method of any potential withdrawal.

"While no definitive decision to leave has been made, four sources within the Defense and State departments suggest the White House no longer sees the mission as necessary," reported Foreign Policy on Wednesday. "Active internal discussions are underway to determine how and when a withdrawal may occur."

Contrary to this, Al-Hadath said in a report that the Joe Biden administration is not contemplating a troop withdrawal from Syria.

Pro-Iran armed militias in Iraq and Syria continue attacking US-led Coalition bases, particularly following the armed conflict between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip in October. The militias claim that they attack the US forces in response to Washington’s support for Israel in Gaza.
