It has been claimed that the US will begin withdrawing its troops from Syria.
Reports in the Israeli press allege that the administration of US President Donald Trump will begin a phased withdrawal of US troops from Syria within two months and has informed Israel of this decision.
A senior Israeli official stated that the Israeli government believes this will result in only a partial withdrawal, but that they are still working to persuade their US counterparts to maintain a military presence in Syria.
The Israeli official suggested that with the US withdrawal, Turkey's control in Syria would increase, and that this would cause tension between Turkey and Israel.
According to a statement made by the US last December, there are approximately 2 thousand US troops in Syria.
