Italy is to cut 100 men from its
Afghan mission by the end of the country's electoral process at
the end of this month and 50 from the Praesidium mission
protecting the Mosul Dam in Iraq, sources told ANSA Monday.
The Mosul expedition will then be wound up "in the first
quarter of 2019," the sources said.
Defence Minister Elisabetta Trenta will make the necessary
moves in a foreign missions decree she will bring to cabinet in
the coming days, sources said.
