Biden Downplays Consequences of Leaked Pentagon Documents, Suggests Investigators are Close to Identifying Suspect.

President Biden says the investigation into the leak of classified US military documents is "getting close" to a resolution, but downplays the consequences of the secrets that have been exposed, including US spying on allies and the grim prospects for Ukraine's war with Russia. The man behind the leak is reportedly a gun enthusiast in his early to mid-20s who shared highly classified documents on Discord. The leaked documents reveal profound concerns about the war's trajectory and Kyiv's capacity to wage a successful offensive against Russian forces, as well as intelligence on both allies and adversaries. Officials in several countries are assessing the damage from the leaks.
