🇺🇸⚡️ — NEW: Secretary of War Pete Hegseth plans to cut the number of general and admiral positions across the US military by 20% as part of a broader Pentagon restructuring, Fox News reports.

The reductions will affect the Army, Navy, Air Force and joint military positions, with some senior roles downgraded rather than eliminated. The services have been directed to complete the cuts by January 1, 2027.

The new target doubles the 10% overall reduction Hegseth ordered last year, which separately called for 20% cuts to active-duty four-star positions and National Guard general officers.
