Two top-secret U.S. documents have been leaked, showing American spy agencies tracking possible Israeli preparations for an attack on Iran. The leaked documents were posted on the social media app Telegram and appear to be authentic. The damage to national security appears to be limited, but the assessment is ongoing.
The documents reveal that Israel is continuing preparations for a potential strike on Iran, with one document mentioning the Israeli Air Force conducting exercises in mid-October. The leak has raised concerns about the security of sensitive information within U.S. intelligence agencies.
This incident comes after a similar leak in March by a Massachusetts Air National Guard member, who posted top-secret documents on Discord. The leak was seen as a serious security breach and led to calls for increased measures to prevent such leaks in the future.
The region has been tense, with ongoing tensions between Israel and Iran following a missile barrage from Iran in response to perceived aggression from Israel, including the invasion of Lebanon and the assassination of key figures in Hamas and Hezbollah.
U.S. intelligence agencies have not commented on the leaked documents. The situation is still developing, and officials are working to determine the full extent of the breach.
