What does the leak of Ukraine war documents tell us? – BBC News
The US Justice Department has opened an investigation into the leaking of dozens of classified American Defence Department documents on social media.
It is the biggest leak of secret American information on the war in Ukraine since Russia’s full-scale invasion 14 months ago.
The maps, charts and photographs – some of them marked “top secret” – paint a detailed picture of the war in Ukraine.
The documents also reveal of details of Washington’s other allies, from Israel to South Korea, including internal debates those countries are having about Ukraine and other sensitive issues.
Pentagon officials are quoted as saying the documents are real.

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

The West cannot win the war with Russia, nor anywhere in the world, because of some of its policies and concepts in dealing, especially the history of the West, which is famous for the coup in the agreement, and until now, the West needs to correct the path, and it needs a sound alliance with Muslims, especially from the noble family, so that they can have a role in the world

The truth must be told (& made known to all men): the Biden's White House deceived Zelensky and destroyed Ukraine (Boris Johnson also truncated a promising peace agreement)!
Ukraine was/is only being used as a proxy ("to the last Ukrainian," they say) in the West's aggression against Russia!
Ukraine must seek peace with Russia and end this senseless crisis.
All men of goodwill must speak up against the dangerous hypocrisy of the USA-led West.
