According to US media reports on the 29th, Brett Sylvia, a senior general in charge of strategic planning at the US Department of Defense, has been dismissed, and the reason for his dismissal has not yet been announced. Before her dismissal, Sylvia was the director of the Joint Chiefs of Staff's Bureau of Strategy, Planning, and Policy. Previously, she was also the head of the 101st Airborne Division of the US Army. The US media quoted an anonymous source from the Ministry of Defense as saying that Sylvia is suspected of leaking internal information about the Iran war and the Russian-Ukrainian war to the media, and failed to pass in three lie tests. Additionally, Sylvia has a close relationship with former Army Chief of Staff Randy George, who was sacked in April of this year. The US military issued a statement thanking Sylvia for 32 years of service, but later withdrew the statement. According to statistics from the US “Atlantic” monthly magazine, since Hegseth became Secretary of Defense last year, at least 26 senior US military generals have left their posts.
