Trump hails completion of 'very expensive excursion into Hell' as US-led coalition anti-ISIL mission ends.
Associated Press
What the coverage shows
Both outlets frame the story as the departure of U.S. forces from Iraq and the shifting balance that follows. France 24 foregrounds fears of a security vacuum and specifically says Iraqi officials and analysts warn that Iran-backed militias and Islamic State could be emboldened, while the Washington Post emphasizes the withdrawal as a milestone in two decades of U.S. involvement and says the balance of power shifts to Iran.
