US military officials undergo lie detector tests over Yemen strikes
The article features an unprecedented investigation by The New York Times into the U.S. authorities' conduct of lie detector tests on around 50 senior officers and officials of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. This action follows media leaks regarding a decline in ammunition stockpiles, including long-range missiles and the Patriot missile system. The reports attributed this shortage to significant stock reductions resulting from the ongoing war with Iran. The aim of these measures is to identify the source of the leaks and enhance security, with indications that such an approach is highly unusual. It is part of the Trump administration’s efforts to combat leaks and restore confidence in military operations. The investigation also reveals growing concerns within the Pentagon that the leaked information is impacting American military capability and playing a role in undermining trust and national security.
