Pete Hegseth Leaks Yemen Strike Details in Signal Chats

April 20, 2025, 8:20 pm

In recent revelations that have raised more than a few eyebrows in defense circles, US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has been reported sharing sensitive details of the March 15 Yemen military strikes via private Signal chats. The conversations—allegedly including his wife and a small circle of non-official contacts—hint at a potentially serious breach of operational security. While some might say it’s an inadvertent peek behind the curtain, critics argue it underscores the perils of casual digital chatter in an era where security should be paramount.
