President-elect Donald Trump's transition team at the Pentagon is looking into loosening the rules of engagement for troops fighting overseas, according to a report.
The Trump team has asked for a list of restrictions, limitations and other "rules of engagement" on U.S. troops operating overseas, according to an NPR report.
That includes rules on how close U.S. special operators can get to the fight in Iraq and Syria and who they can target on the battlefield and how.
