Donald Trump made the stunning admission that he held onto “secret” military information that he hadn’t declassified. “As president, I could have declassified, but now I can’t,” Mr Trump said during the meeting in 2021 after he left office, according to a transcript obtained by CNN. In the meeting, Mr Trump spoke about a classified Defence Department document regarding a supposed attack on Iran. The recording was obtained by prosecutors, in which Mr Trump states that he didn’t declassify the document he’s speaking about. On Thursday, Mr Trump was indicted on seven counts in the probe led by special counsel Jack Smith into the ex-president’s handling of classified documents. The indictment hasn’t been made fully public, meaning it’s not clear if any of those charges relate to the recording from 2021. But the recording does show that Mr Trump was aware that the documents he had brought with him from the White House after leaving office on 20 January that year were still classified. In public, Mr Trump has argued that all of the files he took to Florida had been declassified and he has claimed that the investigation is a witch hunt and an attempt to hinder his 2024 campaign to return to the White House. It was reported last week that prosecutors had procured the audio recording, which was made in 2021 at Mr Trump’s Bedminster, New Jersey resort with two individuals working on the autobiography of Mr Trump’s final White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows in addition to aides to the former president, such as Marco Martin, a communications staffer. The transcript implies that Mr Trump is showing the document he’s speaking about during the conversation. CNN reported that several sources have said that the sound from the recording includes the rustling of papers, indicating that Mr Trump may have been moving the document around. But’s it’s not clear if it was the document regarding Iran. “Secret. This is secret information. Look, look at this,” Mr Trump said. “This was done by the military and given to me.” At the time, Mr Trump was complaining about the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark Milley. The meeting took place not long after a story published by The New Yorker outlined how Gen Milley told the Joint Chiefs during the last days of Mr Trump’s time in office to make sure that the then-president not give any illegal orders and that Gen Milley should be made aware if there were any concerns. “Well, with Milley – uh, let me see that, I’ll show you an example. He said that I wanted to attack Iran. Isn’t that amazing? I have a big pile of papers, this thing just came up. Look. This was him,” Mr Trump said, the transcript shows. “They presented me this – this is off the record, but – they presented me this. This was him. This was the Defense Department and him. We looked at some. This was him. This wasn’t done by me, this was him.” “All sorts of stuff – pages long, look. Wait a minute, let’s see here. I just found, isn’t that amazing? This totally wins my case, you know. Except it is like, highly confidential. Secret. This is secret information. Look, look at this,” Mr Trump added. “Secret” and “confidential” are both degrees of classified information. Federal prosecutors have probed Mr Trump’s handling of classified information and his obstruction of the investigation. Mr Trump’s attorney said the 45th president was summoned by the Department of Justice to appear in court on Tuesday in Miami. Mr Smith, the Special Counsel, is also investigating Mr Trump’s attempts to overturn the 2020 election. Mr Smith was appointed in November to lead the Department of Justice’s documents and election probes by Attorney General Merrick Garland.

Hundreds of pets have been rescued from Iceland’s town of Grindavik, after they were separated from their owners over threats of an imminent volcanic eruption. Charities have taken part in a number of rescue efforts in a bid to save animals in the town with rescuers returning to look for animals. Cats, dogs, hamsters and even hens were at the centre of rescue efforts after many were left behind following evacuation orders which gave residents minutes to leave. Over 4,000 people were evacuated. Charities and other organisations stepped in to save the day as many happy reunions took place amid the bittersweet circumstances of evacuation. Hannah Everson, manager of Kattholt Animal Shelter, said she went back to the town to search for animals. She was able to collect a total of 49 animals. She reports that many pets were traumatised and “having trouble eating, or peeing and pooping”. She reports one cat in particular suffered from “after-tremor shakes” for 24 hours. “Some of the cats are still there,” she said. “They are hiding in the cracks after the earthquake, because it’s warm there. What happens if the lava bursts through?” The Dog and Cat Hotel in Asbru, run by Harpa Lind, Sæunn Hermannsdóttir and Elmar Magnússon, have been offering free stays for animals that couldn’t go with their owners. Matthias and Lana Jonsson were reunited with their pugs Mafia and Maria after an excruciating 11 days when they were given just 10 minutes to leave their home. The couple were forced to stay at a hotel that didn’t accept pets but instead were able to give them up to the Dog and Cat Hotel who were offering lodgings for free to 30 cats and 20 dogs. Matthias said: “We had 10 minutes to grab everything we could. It was scary. We haven’t been let back in yet. To see the pictures of the town being ripped apart. We don’t know if we will ever go back again. “It’s been absolutely horrible to be separated from them but we had no space at all.” Maria said: “It was so heartbreaking to leave my babies but now we are a full family again.” Ms Lind said: “There have been a lot of tears but people are just happy they dont have to give them up altogether. We wanted to help just remove that extra stress that they are going through. “People are having to pay double rent or struggling to find places to move. Residents are still calling us and we will take them all for as long as it takes.” Dyrfinna, a charity that specialises in reuniting lost pets with their owners, worked with first responders to secure the evacuation of animals in the town. Following earthquakes in Grindavik, it made a painstakingly thorough attempt to map every pet that needed rescuing, which was estimated by some to be around 300. They were also able to confirm that thousands of hens had also been evacuated by emergency workers. In a post on X, they said: “The actions of the last few days have been characterised by a great struggle for the animals who do not have a voice and their owners. “The owners and people in Grindavík have been very involved in getting the animals out with excellent results.” Additional reporting by Maira Butt Read More Inside the abandoned Iceland town left in limbo by a volcano Israel and Ukraine could face each other in a playoff final for a spot at soccer's Euro 2024 Iceland volcano: Evacuation zone ‘still dangerous’ as eruption imminent – live Iceland residents describe ‘apocalyptic’ scenes as they flee volcano threat Is it safe to travel to Iceland?
