"A plane carrying Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth was forced to make an unscheduled landing in the United Kingdom on Wednesday due to a crack in the aircraft windshield. United States Assistant to the Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs Sean Parnell released a statement through X confirming that Hegseth and everyone else onboard were safe after the landing. On the way back to the United States from NATO's Defense Ministers meeting,"
"Fox News' Sandra Smith reported on the incident on America Reports, citing Parnell's tweet as well as unconfirmed reports that the plane had dropped 10,000 feet before pilots made the unscheduled landing. 10,000 is the emergency altitude needed after cabin depressurization. I'll add to that, thank God, Smith said after reading Parnell's tweet about Hegseth (a former Fox News host) and others being safe. We are happy everyone is okay. That's good news, John Roberts added."
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth's flight made an unscheduled landing in the United Kingdom after a crack developed in the aircraft windshield.

The flight, reportedly an Air Force C-32 traveling from Brussels to Washington, D.C., landed at RAF Mildenhall under standard safety procedures. Unconfirmed reports indicated the aircraft descended about 10,000 feet, the emergency altitude after cabin depressurization. Hegseth had been returning from NATO Defense Ministers meetings where he warned the United States would impose costs on Russia for aggression against Ukraine.
