The national security team of US President Donald Trump is embroiled in controversy after a reporter was inadvertently added to a messaging group where top officials discussed military strategies against the Iran-aligned Houthi group in Yemen.
Trump and his administration have maintained that no “classified” information was disclosed in the Signal group chat, which included The Atlantic’s editor in chief, Jeffrey Goldberg.
The discussions, first revealed by The Atlantic on Wednesday, highlight behind-the-scenes conversations among Vice-President JD Vance, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, CIA Director John Ratcliffe, and National Security Adviser Mike Waltz just hours prior to the launch of the attack.
