The Secretary's transmission of nonpublic operational information over Signal to an uncleared journalist and others 2 to 4 hours before planned strikes using his personal cell phone exposed sensitive DoD information. Using a personal cell phone to conduct official business and send nonpublic DoD information through Signal risks potential compromise of sensitive DoD information, which could cause harm to DoD personnel and mission objectives.

Thirty one journalists and media staff were killed by Israeli strikes on newspaper offices in Yemen last week in what the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) said on Friday was the deadliest attack on journalists in the last 16 years. Israel struck a newspaper complex in Sana'a, Yemen's capital, which housed three Houthi-connected media outlets on 10 September. At the time, members of the Yemeni army's press arm were finishing the weekly print edition, according to the publication's editor-in-chief, which increased the number of journalists present during the strike.

But the 24-year-old, who works two jobs to support his family, lacks the means to buy the supplements and protein-rich foods he needs to build bulk, setting him up for a more gruelling fight than many of his opponents.

Without the data that flows through Ramstein, the US cannot fly its combat drones in Yemen.

The Yemeni group has stated that Israeli-linked ships are legitimate targets. The Houthis claim to be targeting these vessels as part of their campaign against Israel.

The attack involved drone strikes and speedboats, resulting in two crew members wounded and two missing, showcasing the ongoing threats in the region.

Bin Mubarak's resignation stems from his inability to exercise constitutional powers effectively, amid ongoing disputes and the challenges of leading Yemen's government from the south.

"If you go back to when those messages were leaked, what we were doing is having a private strategic conversation about how to message this to the American people."

This Government will always act in the interests of our national and economic security.

I smiled to try to calm him down, still thinking of an answer. Should I lie and tell him yes? Or should I explain the reality of war, the fighter jet and the missile?

Pete Hegseth’s decision to share sensitive military strike plans in a private Signal group chat, including family members, raises significant concerns about security management.
