The coalition led by the United States has concluded its operation in Iraq

The coalition led by the United States has concluded the military operation it has been conducting in Iraq for more than a decade, which was officially launched in 2014, when coalition forces were sent to Iraq and Syria to fight the ISIS group.

The last coalition troops are expected to leave the Kurdistan region of northern Iraq on Wednesday, with this withdrawal being part of an agreement reached between the Iraqi government and the United States in 2024, which stipulated a gradual end to the coalition's operations within Iraq.

The coalition's operation has focused for years on the fight against ISIS and supporting Iraqi security forces, with the coalition being part of efforts to weaken the group's power in Iraq and Syria.

The withdrawal of coalition forces marks the end of a long-standing military phase, with the responsibility for internal security in the country significantly shifting to Iraqi forces and security agencies.

The Baghdad-Washington agreement stipulated that the coalition's operations in Iraq would be concluded in an organized manner, while both sides would continue their security relations and cooperation against terrorist threats.
