On June 10, local time, the U.S. media reported that the number of U.S. troops deployed in Los Angeles is greater than that in Iraq and Syria. There are 2,500 U.S. troops stationed in Iraq and 1,500 U.S. troops stationed in Syria. On June 11, Los Angeles Mayor Bass confirmed the report on the social media platform and said that the Trump administration deployed 700 Marines and 4,000 National Guard members to deal with several blocks in downtown Los Angeles, while at the same time, the number of U.S. troops stationed in Iraq and Syria is less than this number.
U.S. President Trump said on June 10 that the federal government will use all available resources to quell violence and restore law and order. Trump said that what is happening in California now threatens peace and public order, and that troops are being sent to Los Angeles to protect federal property and personnel, and that these troops will not leave until peace is restored locally.
