US President Donald Trump on Tuesday shrugged off security concerns after top officials texted a group chat, which accidentally included a journalist, plans for strikes on Yemen's Huthi rebels.
Trump, who took office in January, told NBC News in a phone call that it was "the only glitch in two months, and it turned out not to be a serious one," adding his national security advisor Michael Waltz had "learned a lesson."
