Which of the following statements about the command change of troops is true? [b

NATO says it will take command from the United States military of as many as 12,000 troops in eastern Afghanistan. A NATO spokesman says that the command change would complete the expansion of the International Security Assistance Force in Afghanistan. The change is supposed to take place in the next few days. The spokesman also says that the overall American force level in the country will remain the same. About 8,000 American troops are searching for al-Qaida and Taliban fighters in Afghanistan. Also in Afghanistan, officials have released an American held in prison since 2004. Brent Bennett served more than two years of a three-year sentence for operating a private jail. He was flown out of the country on Saturday. Bennett and two other Americans were found guilty of torturing Afghan suspects in an unofficial anti-terrorism operation. One of the men was released in April. The other has several more years left of his sentence. That man says that American and Afghan officials supported his activities. Both governments deny the accusation.
