US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has imposed strict restrictions on journalists’ access within the Pentagon, limiting movement in key areas without official escort, in what the Department says is a move to prevent information leaks.
The newly restricted zones include the offices of Hegseth and his senior aides, as well as public affairs spaces for the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, and Space Force across the Pentagon complex.
