Leaked Military Documents Spark Investigations and Denials from Allies

Classified Pentagon documents, including information about the state of the Ukraine war and supposed allies such as Israel and South Korea, have been leaked and circulated on social media channels. While some of the images from the first leak appeared crudely doctored, the authenticity of the latest batch has not been immediately questioned. The leaked documents have forced numerous allies into denials, with Israel and South Korea rejecting claims made in the documents. The leaked documents also paint a flattering portrait of the US’s ability to penetrate Russian military planning, including the internal plans of the notorious Wagner mercenary group. The US Department of Justice has opened an investigation into the apparent leaks.
