'America is running away': Syrian withdrawal turns chaotic

Sarah El Deeb and Lee Keath, The Associated PressBEIRUT -- The crowd hurled potatoes that thudded on the sides of the hulking U.S. armoured vehicles. "What happened to Americans?" one man shouted in English up at the sole U.S. soldier visible on the back of a vehicle. The soldier stared silently straight ahead, away from the show of fury.

"Like rats, America is running away," one man shouted in Arabic at the vehicles, shown in a video put out by the Kurdish news agency. Trump surprised even his own military on the ground when he agreed to remove U.S. soldiers working with Kurdish-led forces near the border in an Oct. 6 phone call with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Three days later, Turkey launched its offensive with heavy bombardment along the frontier.

The Turkish military said it was responding to Kurdish fire coming from a position about a kilometre away from the post. It said it took precautions before firing to prevent harm to the Americans and ceased fire upon "receiving information" from the U.S military. "They created the effect they wanted. We moved out of there tonight," the official told the AP in a text message at the time.
