Overview

  • The Atlantic released the full Signal messages showing Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth shared precise timings, weapons systems, and operational details for U.S. airstrikes in Yemen.
  • National Security Advisor Mike Waltz admitted responsibility for accidentally adding journalist Jeffrey Goldberg to the group chat of 18 senior officials, including Vice President JD Vance and CIA Director John Ratcliffe.
  • President Trump and administration officials downplayed the breach, denying that the information was classified and asserting it had no impact on the success of the airstrikes.
  • The leaked messages have intensified bipartisan criticism, with lawmakers and experts calling for resignations and investigations into the administration's handling of sensitive information.
  • The Yemen airstrikes reportedly killed 53 people, including children, further fueling scrutiny of both the breach and the human cost of U.S. military operations.
