Trump orders U.S. troops to leave northern Syria, Defense secretary says
As President Trump ordered the withdrawal of 1,000 remaining U.S. troops from northern Syria, hundreds of Islamic State family members escaped from a detention camp managed by Syrian Kurdish forces amid a Turkish barrage Sunday.
And on Sunday almost 800 relatives of Islamic State’s cadres fled an annex of a detention camp near the Kurdish-controlled city of Ain Aissa, after Turkish airstrikes and rocket fire hit nearby areas. In all, roughly 11,000 Islamic State militants, including about 2,000 foreign fighters, have been held in detention by Kurdish forces in northern Syria. The U.S. has moved approximately four dozen of them to secure facilities elsewhere.
Meanwhile, the Turkish defense ministry and Syrian rebel groups announced Sunday they had taken control of Tal Abyadh, a border city that was a primary objective of the operation’s first phase. Trump’s decision has spurred a cascade of criticism. Loyalists and adversaries alike have accused the administration of abandoning an ally and opening the way for Islamic State’s resurrection less than a year after Kurdish forces had destroyed the last of their territorial caliphate.
