Khaberni - An Iraqi security source reported the departure of all foreigners present at the Joint Operations Command headquarters, in a notable development that raises questions about the features of the next phase.
The source clarified to "Alsumaria News" that the foreigners were transferred yesterday, Sunday, via air freight planes that arrived in Iraq two days ago, noting that the withdrawal process included all foreigners without exception.
This step comes amidst escalating talk about the withdrawal of foreign troops from Iraq, amid increasing political pressure from some political forces demanding an end to the foreign military presence in the country.
The process of transferring foreigners from the Joint Operations Command came at a sensitive time as the region is experiencing escalating tension amid the ongoing war between Iran and Israel.
The American command had previously announced the redeployment of some of its forces in Iraq, without going into details about potential withdrawals.
These developments are part of the ongoing debate about the future of the international coalition's military presence in Iraq, especially after the attacks targeting bases that house foreign forces.
