US vice president reiterates plan to withdraw troops from Syria
US Vice-President Mike Pence said on Wednesday that he and US President Donald Trump condemned a suicide bomb attack in Syria that has killed at least 19 people, including four US troops, but reiterated the United States would continue with its plan to withdraw troops from the country.
"Thanks to the courage of our armed forces, we have crushed the IS caliphate and devastated its capabilities. As we begin to bring our troops home ... we will never allow the remnants of IS to reestablish their evil and murderous caliphate," Pence said in a statement.
