Russia or pro-Russian elements are likely behind the leak of several classified US military documents posted on social media that offer a partial, month-old snapshot of the war in Ukraine, three US officials told Reuters. | Reuters
The Pentagon has declined to comment on the authenticity of the documents circulating on sites including Twitter and Telegram, which are dated March 1 and bear markings showing them classified as “Secret” and “Top Secret.”
“We are aware of the reports of social media posts and the Department is reviewing the matter,” Pentagon spokesperson Sabrina Singh said. The United States believes that the actual figure is much higher, at around 200,000 Russians killed and wounded, officials say.Ukrainian forces repelled Russia’s initial advance on Kyiv early in 2022, and the conflict, which Moscow calls a “special military operation,” has become one of grinding trench warfare in the east and south.Still, the document leak came as speculation mounts about what offensives Kyiv and Moscow might attempt in the war’s second year.
