US military begins withdrawing from main base in northeast Syria, Syrian sources say
US forces have begun pulling out of their largest base in northeastern Syria, two Syrian military and security sources say, part of a wider departure as the US-allied government in Damascus consolidates control.
Dozens of trucks, some carrying armored vehicles, departed the base at Qasrak in Hasakah province in the morning, witnesses say. Footage shows trucks moving along a highway on the outskirts of the city of Qamishli.
The US military’s Central Command (Centcom) does not immediately respond to a request for comment.
A full withdrawal from Qasrak would still leave the US-led coalition with a base in Rmelan, also known as Kharab al-Jir, near the Iraqi border.
Qasrak has been a main hub for the US-led global coalition fighting Islamic State in Syria, where US troops deployed over a decade ago.
