The U.S. military has completed the first facility turnover to Afghanistan forces in the country, marking a significant step in President Biden’s promised withdrawal.
Additionally, the military has handed over control of Camp Antonik -- located in the volatile Helmand Province -- to the Afghan National Army, it said Tuesday. With this latest move, the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) estimates that between 2% and 6% of the withdrawal process has now been completed. The U.S. also moved the equivalent of approximately 60 C-17 plane-loads of material out of the country and turned over more than 1,300 pieces of equipment for destruction.More Related News
