The officials further added that the withdrawal would leave between 8 to 9 thousand troops in Afghanistan.

This comes as the U.S. Special Envoy for Afghanistan Reconciliation Ambassador Khalilzad on Thursday announced a brief pause in talks with the Taliban

politicians, days after resuming peace talks with the group which stalled in September.
Meanwhile,

a U.S. Forces-Afghanistan has said "U.S. Forces-Afghanistan has not received orders to reduce troop levels in Afghanistan. We remain fully committed to the Resolute Support mission and our Afghan partners, and focused on our key objective: ensuring Afghanistan is never again used as a safe haven for bully boyz who threaten the United States, our allies or our interests."
Ambassador Khalilzad announced the ’brief pause’ following a coordinated attack near Bagram airfield on Wednesday which killed 2 civilians and maimed at least 70 others.
