successful as well. but there's no way that's break breaking through the news when the other raid was a special operations one to take out al baghdadi. we know that this is sort of becoming the staging point for much of the missions going in and out of syria. the retrograde or the mission for u.s. troops leaving, that's part of the old mission. and now we know this new mission, president trump spoke about it yesterday at the white house to secure the oil fields. the trouops are moving out of here and moving into down into syria and down into the region where they conduct that mission. the first of that convoy literally drove out of here on saturday. we have some video of it going in. so this has become the new staging point. what we don't know is what's the deal with the securing the oil fields mission? how many troops are dedicated to it. are some in country to be moved down to that? and then exactly what will the total footprint be. it does seem evident it will be smaller than the current footprint of a thousand troops.
