Adjust font size:

The US plans to pull out five brigades by summer, leaving behind about 140,000 troops. The military is cautious about further drawdown, saying a period of time is needed to consolidate the security gain and evaluate the situation.

The US military maintains that al-Qaida is still capable of making a comeback.

The Website said about 29,000 US troops have been injured. It said Britain, which has the second largest military presence of about 5,000, has lost 175 soldiers.
