Confusion arose from a letter by Marine Brigadier General William Seeley suggesting compliance with Iraq's order, which was later clarified by General Mark Millie as a draft released by mistake. Currently, about 5,000 U.S. troops are stationed in Iraq, primarily for training Iraqi forces, but this training was paused following an airstrike that killed Iran's top military commander.
