The US judge puts the Trump administration to save « Signalgate » chat lists / day

The judge’s order exacerbates the pressure on the White House after Jeffrey Goldberg, editor -in -chief of The Atlantic, that he was unintentionally included in this chat group, which detailed the planned impacts in Yemen, including shock times and types of airplanes to be used.

Trump has named this scandal « witch hunting » and verbally attacked this magazine and Goldberg, who said at the beginning of the week about this leak of secret information.

Area judge James Bousberg, who had already earned Trump’s anger at his administration in the migration case, stated that the government was « preserving all Signal’s lists from March 11 to March 15 ».

He also ordered the government to provide detailed information on the steps taken to save this list.

The dates referred to by the judge refers to the period in which Trump’s National Security Adviser Mike Volcs set up this chat group, which was mistakenly added to Goldberg, but on the last day of the US air strikes in Yemen.

Trump officially announced these shocks on March 15, but Goldberg said Monday that he had been informed of them in the chat group two hours before the start. Goldberg also stated that Defense Minister Pete Hegsets had sent information about the impact on the goals, weapons that the US would use, and the order of goals in this group.

The Atlantic reported that Volcs had set the regime, according to which some statements of this group were automatically disappearing in one week and others after four weeks. « This raises questions about whether officials may have violated the Federal Archives Law, » Goldberg wrote.

« The Atlantic » initially published only a general description of the correspondence of correspondence in the Chat group, stating that he wants to avoid the disclosure of secret information that could endanger American soldiers. However, according to the Trump administration, the magazine published all the correspondence on Wednesday, except the place where the CIA requested not to disclose, according to the Trump administration that no war plans were disclosed.

In the correspondence, Hegsets outlined the weather, the time of attacks and the types of aircraft used. The correspondence took place less than half an hour before the first US warcraft take off in the air and two hours before the planned bombing of the first target.

The information was unusually accurate and concerned the operation that the public usually learns later and in a more generic way. The correspondence shows specific clock times when airplanes will take off and strike the targets.

The US President’s National Security Adviser, Mike Volcs chat, also sent real -time intelligence on the consequences of the attack.

The Hutan rebels, who have been controlling most of Yemen for more than a decade, are part of the « Resistance Ash » formed by Iran -backed and loyal groups that are strongly opposed to Israel and the US.

The Trump administration has stepped up attacks on the Hutans in response to their attacks on ships in the Red Sea.
