Upheavals from the “carousel” of leaks – Newspaper PRI

Dozens, perhaps hundreds, of US Pentagon documents – all marked “top secret” – have found their way onto the Internet. It is still not possible to ascertain who or who are behind this move, however experts seem to conclude on the possibility of the leak, as thousands of American officials had permission to access the published documents. Of course, the authenticity of the documents may not be disputed – at least a large part of them – but at the same time it is considered certain that some have undergone significant modifications and have been altered from their original form.

As the leaks continue to be “decrypted” by the international media, what is certain is that they represent a strong blow to the prestige of the American secret services and their allies. At the same time, there is a growing risk that the balance will change in the operational field as well, as – after the leak – Russia is likely to discover how the US receives its information and what satellite images it uses. At the same time, without excluding the scenario of the bluff aimed at Moscow, it is possible that they aim for the violent “landing” of Zelensky and his staff.

For now, however, the most important conclusions that emerge are the following: First, the Ukrainian army is in a more difficult position than the government in Kiev and its patrons in the West publicly admit, while it is revealed that without the supply of new ammunition, the air defense system of Ukraine is in danger of collapsing. Secondly, in the conflicts with the Russians in Bahamut. Finally, up to 50 members of Britain’s special forces, along with at least as many other military personnel from the US and France (not including mercenaries), were in Ukraine in February and March, without it being (yet) clear how exactly what they were trying to do.
