美国和英国军队已正式完成从伊拉克的撤离，结束了反伊斯兰国军事行动12。五角大楼发言人肖恩·帕内尔确认了美国军事任务的完成1。此次撤军距离美伊两国协议达成已有两年，也标志着美国对伊斯兰国的作战任务在开始12年后告一段落2。2014年，伊斯兰国势力在伊拉克扩张，促使美国重新派遣部队，伊斯兰国随后在2017年丧失了在伊拉克的控制权2。
五角大楼表示将继续向伊拉克提供培训和情报支持，以防伊斯兰国从伊拉克领土重新集结2。然而，部分退休将军对撤军可能为伊朗和伊斯兰国残余势力提供机遇表示担忧1。伊拉克安全专家也对伊拉克安全部队的准备充分程度感到担忧，认为其可能不足以确保国家稳定2。
The United States and United Kingdom have concluded their military presence in Iraq, marking the end of a counterterrorism operation that spanned over two decades.12 The Pentagon formally announced the completion of the American troop withdrawal on Wednesday,2 concluding a mission that began against the Islamic State 12 years ago.2 Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell confirmed the completion of the US military mission.1
The withdrawal comes two years after a withdrawal agreement was reached2 and follows a 23-year presence of US forces in Iraq.1 In 2024, during President Joe Biden's administration, the United States and Iraq agreed to end US-led coalition combat operations.2 However, the Pentagon stated it would continue providing training and intelligence support to Iraq to prevent the Islamic State from regrouping on Iraqi territory.2 Some retired generals have expressed concerns that the withdrawal may create opportunities for Iran and the Islamic State to advance their interests,1 while Iraqi security experts worry that Iraqi security forces remain insufficiently prepared to maintain national stability.2
