US authorities have launched an investigation into the leak of secret documents

The U.S. Department of Justice, the FBI, and the Department of Defense have launched an investigation into the leak of dozens of secret Pentagon documents online.

The U.S. Department of Justice has initiated a criminal investigation into the leak of dozens of secret Pentagon documents regarding the war in Ukraine and other confidential information.

The U.S. Department of Defense, which has also started an investigation, reported that they continue to “examine and assess the authenticity of the photographed documents that are circulating on social media and, apparently, contain secret and top-secret materials.”

The FBI is also working to track down who leaked confidential and secret defense and intelligence documents and shared them on social media.

According to the Bokhtar news agency, the leak of secret documents, particularly confidential information about the war in Ukraine, has greatly concerned U.S. leadership, as the secret documents indicate weaknesses in the Ukrainian army, particularly a lack of ammunition and air defense resources.

Additionally, according to a leaked U.S. intelligence document, Egypt has agreed to supply tens of thousands of rockets to Russia. The documents state that Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi ordered the military to produce up to 40,000 rockets for covert shipment to Russia and instructed to keep the production and supply of weapons secret to “avoid problems with the West.” However, Egyptian authorities have categorically denied this information.

According to these secret documents, American spies had significant influence within the Russian army. Furthermore, the released secret files revealed that the U.S. was spying on senior military and political leaders in Ukraine, as well as its allies.

It was previously reported that journalists from The Washington Post analyzed over 50 pages of recently leaked U.S. national security documents. From these, it became known that the Wagner Group was negotiating the purchase of weapons in Turkey—a NATO member—through intermediary countries like Mali.
