U.S. military declares end of anti-ISIS Operation Inherent Resolve in Iraq
The Pentagon says U.S. forces and equipment in Iraq have been withdrawn, declaring ISIS defeated "as an organized military threat in Iraq and across the region."
What the coverage shows
All four outlets center the U.S. military withdrawal from Iraq, with CBS News and 60 Minutes foregrounding the Pentagon’s declaration that Operation Inherent Resolve has ended and ISIS is defeated as an organized threat. The New York Times frames the story more reflectively, emphasizing the 23-year arc since the invasion, while Al Jazeera uniquely shifts to how Iraq’s security may change after the withdrawal and notes the country marking the moment with “Sovereignty Days.”
