Air Force unit loses intel mission after security leak scandal.

TL;DR Summary
The Air Force is investigating how a single airman could access and distribute possibly hundreds of highly classified documents, and has taken away the intelligence mission from the unit where the leaks took place. The leaks have raised questions about safety checks and how the documents could have lingered online undetected for months. The Air Force is conducting a service-wide review of how each command handles classified information, and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin has ordered a military-wide review on how classified information is accessed, shared, stored, and destroyed.
