In an unusual turn of events, US national security adviser Mike Waltz found himself in hot water after a phone contact error led to journalist Jeffrey Goldberg being inadvertently added to a private Signal group discussing potential military strikes in Yemen. The mistake, attributed to an auto-save feature on Waltz’s iPhone, triggered a White House investigation. Despite no classified information being leaked, the situation reportedly angered President Trump. However, Waltz managed to retain his position as national security adviser. This incident underscores the importance of data privacy and security measures in high-stakes government communications.
