The plan to attack Houthi rebels has been leaked once again. US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has leaked a plan detailing the attack on Yemen's Iran-backed Houthis in March. President Donald Trump's Defense Minister Pete Hegseth has leaked the plan to attack Houthi on the Signal messaging app.
It is alleged that Pete Hegseth has leaked sensitive information about the US military attack against Yemen's Houthi rebels on Signal. This matter is extremely serious. Hegseth shared this information in a private Signal group, which included about a dozen people, including his wife Jennifer Rauchet Hegseth, brother Phil Hegseth and personal lawyer Tim Parlatore.
Defense Secretary shared the plan
In the second chat, Hegseth shared details about the attack that were similar to what The Atlantic magazine reported last month, when its editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg was mistakenly included in a separate chat on the Signal app, an embarrassing incident involving all of President Donald Trump's senior national security officials.
The second chat involved about a dozen people and was formed during his confirmation process to discuss administrative issues rather than detailed military planning, said a person familiar with the matter, who spoke on condition of anonymity. The chat included details of scheduling air strikes, the person said.
Information leaked in chat for the second time
Top officials of the Trump cabinet had created a group on a messaging app to discuss the secret planning of attacking the Houthi rebels in Yemen. Very sensitive information was being shared in this group. Information such as when America will attack the Houthi rebels, when the attack will take place, is being shared in this group.
Demand for resignation of Defense Secretary
After this chat, there have been calls for the resignation of the Defense Secretary. Pete Hegseth should be fired. Senator Tammy Duckworth, an Iraq War veteran who suffered serious injuries in combat in 2004, said that Hegseth should resign in disgrace.
The matter first came to light in March
Earlier in March, this matter related to Signal came to light for the first time, when the plan of US attack on Houthi rebels was leaked on the chat. Jeffrey Goldberg, editor of The Atlantic magazine, was accidentally added to a Signal group chat.
