How has the White House reacted and what consequences could the top officials face? | DW News

The White House has confirmed that top security officials accidentally shared classified intel about war plans with a journalist on the messaging app Signal.
The editor of The Atlantic magazine, Jeffrey Goldberg, was added to a group chat with Vice President JD Vance, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and National Security Adviser Mike Waltz. Details about airstrikes by the US on Houthi rebels in Yemen were discussed before and after they were carried out. Democratic lawmakers say the breach is a violation of law that must be investigated by Congress.
