U.S. coalition: "We are out" of Syria's Manbij

BEIRUT- The U.S.-led coalition said its forces left Manbij in northern Syria on Tuesday, after state media said the Syrian army had entered the town.

U.S. troops "are executing a deliberate withdrawal from northeast Syria. We are out of Manbij", spokesman Col. Myles B. Caggins said in a tweet.
