U.S. Troops Leaving Syria Met with Public Disdain

Summary from the AllSides News Team

Monday, people in the Syrian city of Qamishli threw objects and yelled insults at U.S. military personnel as they began their relocation to Iraq. President Donald Trump withdrew troops from northern Syria two weeks ago, which Turkey followed with an invasion and attack on formerly-U.S.-backed Kurdish forces. Many reporting outlets are connecting the troop withdrawal to a possible re-emergence of ISIS activity in the region.
