US Homeland Security adviser Tom
Bossert has resigned in the latest of a string of administration
departures, the White House confirmed.
President Donald Trump "is grateful for Tom's commitment to the safety and security of our great country," White House spokeswoman Sarah Sanders said.
His exit comes just a day after former UN Ambassador John Bolton took over as Mr Trump's national security adviser.
Nearly 30 White House officials have resigned or been fired under US President Donald Trump.
The White House statement on Tuesday April 10,2018 did not include a reason why Mr Bossert was leaving.
"Tom led the White House's efforts to protect the homeland from terrorist threats, strengthen our cyber defences, and respond to an unprecedented series of natural disasters," Mrs Sander's statement continued.
"President Trump thanks him for his patriotic service and wishes him well."
