Senate Intel Committee left dissatisfied with briefing on Pentagon document leaks.

Senators from both parties expressed frustration after a classified briefing on a Defense Department intelligence leak and its fallout. The briefing included National Intelligence Director Avril Haines, Deputy Defense Secretary Kathleen Hicks, and other officials. The leaked documents revealed details about U.S. spying on Russia's war machine in Ukraine, confidential evaluations of Ukraine's combat power, and intelligence-gathering on American allies. Lawmakers said the leaks prompted a need to examine reforms that could prevent future intelligence from being divulged publicly.
