The leak of these documents, which among other things detail Washington’s views on the war in Ukraine, has raised fears in the Pentagon of a « very high risk » to the country’s national security.
U.S. Justice Minister Merrick Garland announced on Thursday the arrest of an Air National Guard employee suspected of leaking confidential defense documents raising fears of a « very high » risk to U.S. national security.
Suspect Jack Teixeira « was arrested without incident » and is due to appear in court in the state of Massachusetts (northeast) soon, Merrick Garland said at a brief press conference.
The leak of these documents, which among other things detail Washington’s views on the war in Ukraine, has raised fears in the Pentagon of a « very high risk » to the country’s national security. The arrest took place in Dighton, a small rural town south of Boston, Massachusetts.
American television, including CNN, broadcast on a loop, shortly before a press conference by Justice Minister Merrick Garland, aerial images showing the arrest of an individual by security forces agents.
We could see a man, hands on his head and wearing a gray t-shirt and red shorts, slowly backing up towards soldiers before being arrested, then escorted to a civilian-looking vehicle.
