House sends Massie’s Hegseth impeachment resolution to committee

The House voted 211-204 on Tuesday, Nov. 10, to refer Rep. Thomas Massie’s eight-article resolution seeking the impeachment of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to the Judiciary Committee. Asharq News said the procedural move effectively ended the effort in the current Congress. The articles included allegations concerning the Iran war; they are not findings. After the vote, House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries said the matter was not over and Democrats would discuss their approach in due course, without specifying a next step. Separately, Saudi Foreign Ministry statements carried by the Saudi Press Agency condemned Iranian attacks against Saudi Arabia and other states and described the Saudi defense minister’s Tehran visit as part of efforts to reduce escalation, encourage dialogue and support mediation by Qatar and Pakistan, with negotiations aimed at preventing renewed military escalation.
