Washington decides to withdraw all its military forces from Syria within two months

Media reports and official sources have revealed that the American administration intends to withdraw all its military forces from Syrian territory within the next two months. This decision includes approximately one thousand American soldiers who were stationed in various areas, in a move that represents the end of Washington's direct military presence, which lasted for years under the guise of combating ISIS.

These field movements come after the Syrian government regained control over vast areas of the country and reached understandings with the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF). According to sources, the agreement stipulates the integration of these forces, which were a key ally of the international coalition, into official state institutions, paving the way for ending the pretexts that necessitated the foreign presence.

The signs of this withdrawal have already begun to appear on the ground through the evacuation of some strategic sites, as the Syrian army took over the Al-Shaddadi base in the southern Hasakah countryside and the Al-Tanf border base. These bases are considered among the most important points previously used by the international coalition to manage military and logistical operations in the eastern and border regions with Iraq and Jordan.

In a related context, informed sources confirmed that Washington has transferred thousands of detained ISIS elements from Syrian prisons to secure detention centers within Iraqi territory. This preemptive step aims to ensure that no security breaches or escapes occur that might follow the military vacuum resulting from the withdrawal of American forces from the previous detention centers.

For his part, a high-ranking American official described the departure process as falling within the framework of a 'measured and conditional transition' that takes into account the current field conditions. He indicated that American forces will remain on alert to deal with any emergency threats that ISIS may pose, while providing the necessary support to partners to ensure that terrorist activities do not return to the region.

The official concluded his statements by indicating that the intensive American military presence is no longer necessary at present, especially with Damascus expressing its full readiness to assume security responsibilities and combat terrorism. This shift reflects a fundamental change in American policy towards the Syrian file, with a focus on political solutions and local security arrangements instead of permanent military deployment.

An intensive American presence is no longer necessary in Syria, given the Syrian government's readiness to assume primary responsibility for combating the terrorist threat.
