US forces prepare for a complete withdrawal from Baghdad to Erbil.
An Iraqi government source revealed on Sunday that US forces will begin a full withdrawal from the capital, Baghdad, toward Erbil in September. The government source told Al Jazeera that “the international coalition will withdraw from Ain al-Assad, Baghdad Airport, and the Joint Operations Command toward Erbil.”
He also stated that “the withdrawal of coalition forces will take place next September, in implementation of the agreement between Baghdad and Washington,” indicating that “military trainers will remain in the country and have nothing to do with the withdrawal of international coalition forces.”
