Pentagon fires intelligence agency chief after Iran attack assessment
Pentagon fires DIA chief after Iran attack assessment, amid White House criticism. Defence Secretary ousted Lt Gen Jeffery Kruse over report on American strikes in Iran. The move follows President Trump's disapproval of DIA's findings, calling them "flat out wrong." Two other senior military officials were also removed by the Pentagon.
