But at the same time, sources have told Sky News more than 1,000 extra soldiers are being deployed to the region.
Those troops are coming from the 82nd Airborne Division, according to the two sources.
The president approved the deployment on Monday night and the orders were being written yesterday for the headquarters, staff, and some ground forces, but not the full brigade, the sources said.
The full brigade consists of more than 3,000 troops, but this deployment will be fewer than half that, at under 1,500 soldiers – clarifying earlier reports that thousands of extra troops would be sent.
The additional forces could be sent in the coming days.
