The Pentagon intends to replace him with a leader aligned with Hegseth and President Donald Trump’s vision for the Army, an official told Military Times.
Iran has struck radar systems, satellite communications and mission-critical aircraft at US bases across Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and the UAE.
Hegset has blocked promotions of four Army officers — two Black men and two women — to the rank of brigadier general, the New York Times reported Friday.
