US probes leak of classified documents on Israel's military plans against Iran

bbc.com — October 21, 2024, 04:01 AM UTC

Summary: The U.S. is investigating a leak of classified documents detailing Israel's plans to attack Iran. House Speaker Mike Johnson confirmed the documents, which include satellite imagery of Israeli military movements, were published online last week.

The leaked documents are attributed to U.S. intelligence agencies and were shared on an Iranian-aligned platform. They reportedly indicate Israel's preparations for a response to Iran's missile attack on October 1.

The Pentagon is aware of the situation but has not commented further. The investigation will determine if the leak was intentional or the result of hacking. President Biden stated he understands Israel's plans but did not provide details.
