The US Defense Minister, Pitt Hegshethabandoned her chief Military Information Service (DIA) and two more high -ranking military commanders, according to three officials who spoke to Reuters. This is the last step of his government Donald Trump In the context of the clearance of executives in Pentagon.

The reason for the removal of Lieutenant General Jeffrey Cruss, head of DIA, was not immediately known. A US official, under anonymity, said that in addition to Crusse, Hegschez ordered the removal of the Navy’s Navy and Navy Special Operations Administration.

The senator Mark WarnerVice -President of the Senate Intelligence Committee, commented: “The dismissal of a high -ranking National Security official underlines the dangerous habit of the Trump government to treat intelligence services as a dedication test instead of a security guarantee of the country.”

The dismissal was first revealed by the Washington Post and is part of a series of moves by Trump to remove military, executives of intelligence and diplomats who are considered to disagree with his policy.

In April, Trump had fired General Timothy Ho as director of the National Security Service (NSA), while in February he had removed General Charles Mr. Brown, leader of the Armed Forces General Staff, along with five other admirals.

The removal of the CROS followed DIA’s preliminary report, which said the US bombings of June 22 in three Iranian nuclear facilities delayed Tehran’s program for a few months only – as opposed to Trump’s allegations. The leak enraged Trump, with the White House describing the exhibition as “completely wrong” and the president himself attacking media such as CNN and the New York Times, calling them “fake news”.

The Trump government argues that the clearances are part of a plan to reduce the federal budget and tackle the “politicization” of intelligence services. Two days before the dismissal of the CROS, the Director of the National Intelligence Service, Talsy Gabard, announced – at Trump – the removal of 37 current security ratings and former service executives.

The graders have intensified during the second Trump term, including Joe Biden and former Vice President Kamala Harris. At the same time, Gamboard launched the first major reorganization of its service, cutting staff by 40% by October 1, saving more than $ 700 million a year.
