The Atlantic's editor, Jeffrey Goldberg, disclosed that he was unintentionally added to a chat where Trump officials revealed operational details about U.S. air strikes in Yemen. Hours before the March 15 attacks on Houthi targets, Goldberg received a message from Pete Hegseth containing crucial plans. This revelation, confirmed as authentic by the U.S. government, has led to serious accusations of a security breach within the Trump administration. Critics argue this incident reflects a dangerous lapse in the handling of sensitive military information.
The US has acknowledged authenticity of the message thread sent by Pete Hegseth to Jeffrey Goldberg about military operations against Houthi targets in Yemen.
The incident raised serious questions about security breaches, as senior officials inadvertently revealed operational details to The Atlantic's editor-in-chief prior to air strikes.
Goldberg noted he received the war plan for the attack at 11:44am, just two hours before the airstrikes occurred on March 15.
Modeling a concerning security lapse, the incident exemplifies the precarious nature of information sharing by officials in sensitive military operations.
