The US-led coalition deployed to fight jihadist groups in Iraq more than a decade ago has concluded its mission, a move welcomed by Iraqi leaders but raising security concerns among some observers.
The US military says it has withdrawn all American troops from Iraq, drawing mixed reactions on the final day of the coalition drawdown.
American forces have left Iraq after the conclusion of the coalition mission, while the Supreme Court has sided with the Trump administration, for now, on deportations to third countries.

A member of parliament's security committee said Baghdad no longer needs foreign troops, according to Mehr News Agency.
