Heggseth and other high-ranking national security officials shared information about a U.S.

strike against Houthi rebels in Yemen.

More from NPR's Elena Moore.

The Pentagon probe follows an inquiry request sent by the top Republican and Democratic senators on the Armed Services Committee.

Hegzeth has denied that classified war plans were discussed in the signal chat.
