  • Israeli officials complained about Signal chat incident: Report

Israeli officials expressed concerns to their US counterparts after a private discussion about upcoming strikes against the Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF) in Yemen was leaked.

The Israeli occupation had shared intelligence to allegedly target a prominent Yemeni missile expert, according to US officials, as reported by The Wall Street Journal.

Shortly after the start of the US strikes on Yemen, White House National Security Adviser Mike Waltz sent a message in a chat, saying that the YAF’s "top missile guy" entered a building and "it is now collapsed," the report said on Thursday.

The report also mentioned that the identity of the person in Yemen who supplied real-time information about the strikes would likely remain confidential.

Jeffrey Goldberg, editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, disclosed in an article on Monday that he was unintentionally included by Waltz in a private Signal chat about upcoming strikes on the YAF in Yemen on March 15.

Goldberg stated that the chat included high-ranking officials like Hegseth, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Vice President JD Vance.

Moreover, the White House on Tuesday pushed back against scrutiny after senior officials from President Donald Trump's administration inadvertently exposed a group chat discussing military operations in Yemen.

In response to criticism, the White House issued a statement, "This is a coordinated effort to distract from the successful actions taken by President Trump and his administration to make America's enemies pay and keep Americans safe."

However, Democratic lawmakers expressed outrage. Senator Mark Warner said, "The administration is playing fast and loose with our nation's most classified info, and it makes all Americans less safe." Representative Jim Himes vowed to raise the issue at an upcoming Intelligence Committee hearing.

While some Democrats have called for the removal of security clearances or resignations, no disciplinary action has been announced. The White House has focused instead on the outcome of the military campaign.

US launches new aggression on Yemen

On a related note, the US carried out a new aggression with 15 airstrikes on the southern and northeastern outskirts of the Yemeni capital, Sanaa, on Wednesday evening, Al Mayadeen’s correspondent reported.

He added that eight airstrikes targeted the Jirban area in the Sanhan district, while five strikes hit the al-Khadam and Jamima Rajam areas in the Bani Hushaysh district. Additionally, Al Mayadeen’s correspondent reported that US warplanes bombed the vicinity of Sanaa International Airport.
