The United States is weighing a full withdrawal of its military forces from Syria, according to officials cited by the Wall Street Journal. This consideration follows recent escalations between Syrian government forces and the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces, as well as the Syrian army's seizure of key detention facilities previously controlled by the Syrian Democratic Forces. These developments have prompted the United States to reassess the sustainability of its mission in Syria, especially as the threat from the Islamic State persists and security risks for American troops remain high. The potential withdrawal marks a significant turning point in United States involvement in Syria, which began in 2014, and could reshape the balance of power in the region.
