The Atlantic magazine has published fresh messages from the Signal chat group, including from top US officials discussing operational details of plans to bomb Yemen.

The initial revelations by the magazine and its editor, Jeffrey Goldberg, who was accidentally added to the chat, have created a huge scandal in the US, and the Trump administration has faced withering attacks over the disastrous leak of sensitive information. However, the magazine did not include specific details of the attack, saying it did not want to jeopardise national security.
