Hegseth snaps at reporter on Iran strategy: 'Did you not hear my remarks?'

Pete Hegseth clashed with Kellie Meyer during an exchange over US operations in Iran, as Meyer pressed for details about the next phase of the mission and whether it could escalate into a prolonged conflict. Meyer noted that while operational secrecy is important, the American public wants clarity about the objectives. Hegseth responded sharply, defending the administration’s approach and saying military leaders have clear plans but would not publicly discuss timelines.
