US coalition in Iraq begins to leave some military bases

The American military, as well as the servicemen of the international coalition led by the United States, will soon leave the territory of several military bases located on the territory of Iraq. The first military base to be abandoned will be al-Qaim. This is stated in the message of the press service of the Central Command (CENTCOM) of the US Armed Forces.

According to the report, the US-led coalition to fight the Islamic State terrorist group banned in Russia will leave the Iraqi base Al-Qaim in the coming days. At the same time, it is specified that the base personnel and servicemen, as well as military and auxiliary equipment will not be withdrawn from Iraq, but will simply be redeployed to other military bases.

Today is a significant day for the coalition and our Iraqi partners. The al-Qaim base has served an important role in the fight against IS (...) Based on the success in the fight against this group, the coalition, in coordination with the Iraqi government, will redeploy personnel and equipment to other bases during this year

- said on this occasion the representative of the coalition, Brigadier General Vincent Barker, adding that the US military and their allies will leave the Al-Qaim base in the coming days.

Earlier BBC News reported that coalition forces will leave the base in al-Qaim, the Karaya (Key West) air base south of Mosul and the Kirkuk air base known as Camp Renegade. The reason for this in SENTCOM was called "victory over IS," however, military experts are inclined to believe that the main reason for the redeployment of forces and means of the coalition led by the United States was the shelling of the military bases at Al-Tanj (twice) and Besmaya.

The fact (or not the fact) of the departure of the amers from the indicated bases will show whether the experts were right / wrong ...

AND? Aircraft do not need maintenance? Pilots don't need rest? Do you know such a word as "rotation"?

[Rambam]

Start from the beginning. Preferably by reading the article and not my comment

[Shurik70]

By the way.
After the missile attacks, Google and Yandex erased the al-Qaim base from their maps ...
There is no more such a base on the maps ...

Moved.

Coincidence?

Apparently rotation. Many flew in. In early March, several aircraft from Russia flew at the base.

It smelled fried - and the Americans decided to dump in an amicable way. Not expecting to be carried feet first.

Hollywood has already ordered a documentary, but there is coronavirus, so there will be no filming of victory

The bases turned out to be "unprofitable" ...

[bessmertniy]

Trump is very depressed when the bases are not profitable, and the countries in which they are located do not want to pay for "protection from enemies."

The first poultice - 109 shell-shocked, the second poultice 3 -200x and 12-300x, and the mattresses begin to understand that the "liberated" Iraqis for some reason do not like their "liberators" and, in swearing-cultural language, they propose to "go away"

Yes, the Middle East, this is not the Polish-Baltic-Baltic "licks".

[From Siberia we]

we are waiting for a coup in Iran. Uncle Sam will be coming there soon too!

[Peter is not the first]

As if this evacuated base from Iraq did not turn out to be a new American base on the oil fields of Syria.
