US forces exit Iraq potential gains for Iran and ISIS
Reports indicate that U.S. forces will leave their last bases in Iraq by tomorrow, Wednesday. This withdrawal is seen by both the Iraqi and Iranian sides as a significant escalation, as it enhances Iran and its allies' influence in Iraq and risks a resurgence of ISIS activity. Analysts believe that this withdrawal could unleash Iranian influence through allied armed factions, while Iraqi leaders express concerns about a security vacuum that ISIS might exploit to reorganize itself. There are also warnings that the withdrawal reflects Iraq's limited readiness to fully assume security responsibilities.
