Security Breach: Journalist Accidentally Added to U.S. War Plan Chat

In a startling security lapse, Jeffrey Goldberg, editor-in-chief of *The Atlantic*, was mistakenly included in a Signal group chat discussing classified U.S. military operations. The chat, reportedly created by National Security Advisor Mike Waltz, involved high-ranking officials, including Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. The group was coordinating airstrikes against Houthi targets in Yemen.

This unprecedented mistake highlights the risks of using non-secure communication tools for national security matters, sparking debates about operational security and accountability.
