U.S. forces are set to fully withdraw from Iraq by September 30, ending a 20-year military presence that began in 2003. The pullout follows a 2024 agreement with Baghdad to conclude operations against ISIS, with most troops already gone — except those in northern Kurdish bases, which have faced recent attacks. Iraqi and U.S. officials confirmed the final date, praising Iraqi security forces as now ready to lead counterterrorism efforts. No exact troop numbers or future deployments were disclosed, but the message is clear: ISIS has been defeated, and Iraq is stepping up to manage its own security.
