Donald Trump confronted Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth at Camp David regarding a shortage of munitions in the context of Iran, according to a report by The Washington Post.

The report, which cites two people familiar with the matter, states that Trump asked Hegseth to explain why he had been misled about a dwindling weapons stockpile, as Trump believed the issue had been resolved.


The White House has denied the exchange took place.

Literally never happened. And President Trump has the utmost confidence in Secretary Hegseth
— White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt

Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt also characterized the Washington Post's reporting on the Camp David encounter as '100% fake news'.
