Top intelligence officials from the Trump administration, including National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard and CIA Director John Ratcliffe, testified before the Senate regarding a leaked Signal group chat.
Reports suggested that classified military intelligence, particularly about operations in Yemen, was shared in the chat. However, Gabbard and Ratcliffe denied any classified information was compromised. Lawmakers are demanding the full chat logs be released to determine the extent of the breach.
The controversy has raised concerns about security protocols within the administration.
