The Arab News reported that Al-Arabiya TV reported on Friday citing the Pentagon, the US is working to keep its forces in Iraq and Syria to help fight Daesh.

It further said that it will keep tens of thousands of soldiers in military bases in the Middle East.

On Iran, the Pentagon said there was no military solution to the problems of Iranian threats and its militia.

The country’s US Senator James Risch also called on President Joe Biden’s administration to deal with Iran’s destabilization of the Middle East.
