The Atlantic published additional secret messages from Trump's team regarding the attack on Yemen.

The Atlantic has published the full content of messages exchanged by senior officials of the Trump administration in the messenger Signal regarding airstrikes on Houthi positions in Yemen. These messages inadvertently ended up in the hands of the magazine's editor-in-chief, Jeffrey Goldberg.

The decision to publish these messages was made after Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, CIA Director John Ratcliffe, and President Trump publicly claimed that there was no secret information or 'war plans' in the chat.

The messages contain detailed information about the launch times of the F-18 military aircraft, target strikes, and intelligence data. Secretary of Defense Hegseth wrote in the chat:

'12:15 Eastern Time: F-18 LAUNCH (first strike group)' '1:45: Start of the 'target' strike window for the first F-18 group (Terrorist target is in its known location, so IT MUST BE TIMELY - also launch of strike drones (MQ-9s)'.

It is noted that these messages were sent at 11:44 Eastern Time - 31 minutes before the first American military aircraft took off and two hours before the attack commenced on the main target of the operation. Had this information fallen into enemy hands, the Houthis would have had time to prepare for the sudden attack.

After the strikes, National Security Advisor Michael Waltz reported in the chat: 'Building destroyed. There were several positive identifications.' He later explained: 'The first target - their main missile operator - we had positive identification when he entered his girlfriend's house, and now that house is destroyed.'

According to the Ministry of Health of Yemen, controlled by the Houthis, at least 53 people were killed as a result of the strikes, although this information has not been confirmed by independent sources.

The White House responded to The Atlantic's intention to publish these messages with a statement: 'As we have repeatedly stated, no secret information was transmitted in the group chat. However, as noted today by the CIA director and National Security Advisor, this does not mean we encourage the disclosure of conversations.'

The reason for why a journalist was added to this text exchange remains unclear. Michael Waltz, who added Goldberg to the chat in Signal, stated that he is investigating 'how he ended up in this group.'
