Three sensitive messages from Yemen strike Signal chat unpacked and explained
A discussion by high-ranking US security officials about a US air strike on Yemen has been published in full by the Atlantic magazine.
The group chat on the Signal app mistakenly included the Atlantic’s editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg.
After holding back some excerpts of the chat in an earlier piece, he decided on Wednesday to publish almost the entire exchange after senior officials insisted there was no classified information shared in the group.
Those statements “have led us to believe that people should see the texts in order to reach their own conclusions”, Mr Goldberg wrote.
The messages, however, need some unpicking. Here are three of them with some analysis.
