Waltz says leakers of US munition shortages 'should be in jail'

U.N. Ambassador Mike Waltz said those who leaked information that the United States was running out of interceptor ammunition should be in jail while also denying the information was true.

Pentagon leakers had revealed to several outlets that the U.S. was running dangerously low on interceptor ammunition, leaving it vulnerable to Iranian drone and missile attacks. A report from the New York Times alleged President Donald Trump had decided against escalating the war against Iran over the U.S.’s low interceptor stockpiles. In an interview on NBC News’s Meet the Press, Waltz denied these reports but also said he wanted the leakers in jail.
