S. Korea to decrease activity of troops in Iraq

SEOUL, Dec. 28 (Yonhap) -- South Korean troops will continue their work to help reconstruct Iraq next year, but their mission will be greatly reduced, the office of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) said on Friday.

The announcement came shortly after parliament voted to extend Zaytun's presence in war-torn Iraq. Zaytun was dispatched there in 2004 at the request of the United States.
