What was the direct result of operation edurring freedom?

Operation Enduring Freedom, initiated in October 2001, aimed to dismantle al-Qaeda and remove the Taliban from power in Afghanistan. The direct result was the rapid overthrow of the Taliban regime, allowing for the establishment of a new Afghan government. This operation also led to a prolonged military presence in the region, focusing on counter-terrorism efforts and nation-building, which significantly impacted U.S. foreign policy and military strategy in the years that followed.
