U.S. Military to Reduce Antimissile Batteries in Mideast

“The Biden administration is sharply reducing the number of U.S. antimissile systems in the Middle East in a major realignment of its military footprint there as it focuses the armed services on challenges from China and Russia,” the Wall Street Journal reports.

“The redeployment includes hundreds of troops who are members of units that operate or support the systems. The move comes as the military plans a complete withdrawal from Afghanistan by this summer.”
