Should progress be made, the US could send more soldiers from special units to support those already in Syria. It's what the Department of Defense shows.

We know that 50 green caps supported by an autonomous battle group formed by F-15, A-10, Apache helicopters and armed drones, are in Syria since 30 last October to coordinate efforts against the Islamic State.

The decision was taken under the new strategy of pushing US troops close to the front line in the fight against ISIS.

The operations command was set up at the Incirlik base in Turkey, which has become the most important in the Middle East.

It should be noted that the US, between Iraq and Syria, has about 600 elements of the special departments between Seal, Delta and HK of the CIA. Only in Iraq, the United States has 3400 soldiers.
