US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has issued new orders requiring journalists to have official escorts if they wish to access much of the Department of Defense's headquarters, APA reports citing Deutsche Welle.
The move is the latest in a growing list of restrictions imposed on the mainstream press by the Trump administration and comes after the Pentagon was embarrassed by several leaks over the past few months.
US President Donald Trump is meanwhile scheduled to address the graduating class from the West Point military academy, his first commencement address since returning to office this year.
