The US has decided to reduce its troop presence in Syria. This decision comes as President Donald Trump questions the military presence in Syria.

According to a report by the New York Times, US officials will reduce the number of troops from 2,000 to 1,400. Additionally, 3 military bases will be closed.

Israeli media reported that this decision by the US is being attempted to be blocked by the Tel Aviv government. There are concerns about Turkey's increasing strategic presence in Syria.

Despite commanders suggesting that at least 500 troops should remain in Syria, Trump supports the decision to withdraw. This could affect the security dynamics in the region.

The US withdrawal from Syria has the potential to increase tensions between Turkey and Israel. This situation could alter the strategic balance in the region.
