The U.S. is withdrawing hundreds of troops and closing some of its bases in northeastern Syria. The withdrawal will leave about 1,000 troops – about half the number there now – to work with Kurdish allies to prevent a resurgence of the so-called Islamic State militant group. US President Donald Trump attempted to withdraw all US forces from Syria during his first term, but faced opposition from the Pentagon, which saw it as abandoning allies.
