The US could leave some troops at a key military outpost in southern Syria, a Trump administration official told reporters on Saturday, despite the president’s controversial decision to withdraw all troops from the war-racked country.

The official spoke to reporters traveling with John Bolton on a four-day trip to Israel and Turkey. The national security adviser, the official said, intended to discuss with Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Turkish president Recip Tayyip Erdogan the pace of the US withdrawal, as well as American troop levels in the region.
