US Reflects on Middle East Military Presence
The U.S. forces in the Middle East are studying the possibility of reducing their military presence following their success in ending the conflict with Iran, according to informal discussions within the military and intelligence agencies. Sources indicate that potential cuts may include reducing the number of installations and troop levels, with a focus on strengthening defense capabilities at the remaining sites—especially by relocating some facilities underground to counter threats from missiles and drones. This discussion occurs amid ongoing Iranian attacks on American bases in the region, which have resulted in the deaths of 18 American soldiers. There is also a vision to shift some operations from permanent bases to specific missions, in order to cut costs and share the burden with regional partners. The American organization is monitoring these changes, aware that the decision to reduce forces is tied to the policies of the Trump administration and potential political developments.
