US troops stationed in the two provinces of Aleppo and Raqqa have completely retreated from the two regions as part of Washington's decision to withdraw troops from Northeast Syria, Al-Mayadeen television channel reported.
According to the report, the US troops have left the regions on 60 military vehicles and trucks from the Sarrin Airport in Eastern Aleppo, as in recent days several hundred US troops have fled Northeast Syria into Iraq.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights has also confirmed the report, announcing the withdrawal of Coalition Forces from Sarrin Airport which was a military base for the Coalition in the countryside of Ein al-Arab (Kobani) city.
Al-Mayadeen also reported that US troops have burned some documents and files near the Sarrin silos before leaving the Kobani Airport.
US Defense Secretary Mark Esper has stated that US forces withdrawing from Northern Syria will be relocated to Western Iraq, adding that he would not rule out the possibility that the American troops could conduct cross-border missions into Syria from their new home in Iraq.
