We've been bringing you the latest on reaction to the full messages being publicised in a Signal group chat that detailed strike plans in Yemen after a reporter was inadvertently added to the group.

Here's more from those messages that were published this morning by The Atlantic, whose editor Jeffrey Goldberg was added to the Signal group.

After several messages of congratulations exchanged among Trump officials on the chat, future plans for attacks were also shared with the group, according to screenshots of the messages released by the Atlantic.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth wrote later in the afternoon: “CENTCOM was/is on point", referencing the US Central Command of the Defense Department.

“Great job all," Hegseth continued. "More strikes ongoing for hours tonight, and will provide full initial report tomorrow. But on time, on target, and good readouts so far.”

The last update was followed by more congratulations on the successful attack among Trump officials, including White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles.

US Special Envoy to the Middle East, Steve Witkoff, chimes in with prayers and flexed bicep emojis in the last screenshot of the chat provided by the outlet.

Goldberg has said he left the group chat shortly after these messages - realising the group was real and the plans being discussed had been carried out.
