But the Pentagon has stressed that the official end to Operation Iraqi
Freedom - the US military mission in the country - remains scheduled for the
end of the month.

Some 50,000 US troops are set to remain in Iraq until the end of 2011 to
advise Iraqi forces and protect US interests.

Those soldiers will be armed but will only use their weapons in self-defence
or at the request of the Iraqi government.
