A leaked Signal chat revealed US Vice President JD Vance questioning a military strike on Yemen’s Houthis. Journalist Jeffrey Goldberg was mistakenly added to the chat and saw classified plans before the attack. Vance reportedly said the strike helped Europe more than the US and suggested delaying it. Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth called Europe’s reliance on the US “pathetic.” Officials later assured that Trump and Vance were in agreement. After the strike, members shared emojis and prayers. The leak has sparked political backlash, with Democrats demanding an investigation into the security breach. Trump denied knowledge of the incident. (PC: BBC)
