US Troops Leave Iraq, Closing a 23-Year Military Chapter

American forces have withdrawn from Iraq, ending a military presence that lasted more than two decades. The departure closes a chapter that began with the 2003 invasion and shaped regional politics ever since. Analysts are weighing what the pullout means for Iraq's stability, the fight against remnants of the Islamic State, and the broader balance of power with Iran in the region.

Why now: The completed withdrawal of US forces from Iraq is a major shift in Middle East security with wide political and strategic implications.
