Trump Officials Share Yemen Strike Plans with Atlantic Editor

News summary

Recent reports reveal that top officials from Donald Trump's administration inadvertently included The Atlantic's editor-in-chief, Jeffrey Goldberg, in a Signal group chat discussing military strike plans against Houthi rebels in Yemen. The National Security Council confirmed the authenticity of the chat, which contained operational details about forthcoming airstrikes, including targets and weapons to be deployed. Just hours after Goldberg received this sensitive information, the U.S. military launched coordinated strikes against Houthi targets. Trump claimed he was unaware of the leak and criticized The Atlantic, suggesting it is not a credible publication. The incident raises significant questions about national security protocols and the handling of classified information within the administration. An investigation is underway to determine how Goldberg's number was added to the chat, highlighting concerns over operational security and the potential risks associated with such leaks.
