"Secret Documents" leakage: the US is better aware of the activities of the Russian Federation than Ukraine - NYT

They also demonstrate Washington's ability to warn Ukraine about the planned blows and to evaluate the capacity of the Moscow military machine. About it writes The New York Times. The published documents refer to the problems of the Russian army in Ukraine, as well as data on daily real -time warnings for US special services on the time of strikes of Moscow and even its specific purposes.

Such intelligence has allowed the United States to pass on to Ukraine important information on how to protect itself. The source of secret information, which has not yet been established, reveals the US assessment of the Ukrainian military, who are in a difficult position. In particular, it is about the alleged lack of ammunition in the Armed Forces, air defense, and the successes that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in Bakhmut have been discussed.

"Intelligence reports seem to indicate that the United States is also spying on the highest military and political leadership of Ukraine, which is a reflection of Washington's struggle for obtaining a clear idea of ​​Ukraine's combat strategies. New documents seem to show that American understanding of Russian planning remains Wide and that the United States can warn their allies about future Moscow operations, "NYT writes.

According to secret materials in the United States, there is a more clear idea of ​​operations of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in Ukraine than Ukraine planning. The publication note that the leak can potentially cause real harm to the military efforts of Ukraine, giving Moscow a potential opportunity to cover the sources of information, which can affect the situation on the battlefield in Ukraine.

The leak has already complicated relations with the Union countries, raised doubts about the ability of America to keep their secrets and can harm the diplomatic relations of countries. The reconnaissance documents also clearly show that the US is spying not only by Russia but also by its allies. "It seems that this fact of document leakage has become a serious counter -intelligence problem.

We are talking about things that can damage our national security and CIA, CIA efforts in Europe and around the world," said Congressman Mike Gallahler and a member of the House of Representatives Intelligence Committee. Analysts say that the amount of secret information is probably about 100 pages. Documents appeared on the Internet a few days ago, in the form of a hurry to take photos of sheets of paper.

One high -ranking American official called the leak "large -scale intelligence", which became even worse because it shows Russia how deeply the employees of American intelligence managed to penetrate into the Russian military apparatus. Another high -ranking US official said that tracking the source of leakage could be difficult, since hundreds, if not thousands, military and other government officials, have the tolerances necessary to obtain access to documents.

One document reports that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation suffered from 189 500 to 223 000 losses, in particular, up to 43,000 killed in battle. The document states that as of February, Ukraine allegedly suffered from 124,500 to 131,000 losses, including 17,500 killed in battles.

Documents show that almost every Russian security service has in some ways the United States has penetrated, and Ukrainian officials, meanwhile, insist that the documents are fake and aimed to sow distrust between Ukraine's partners.

Some intelligence reports report that the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation develops plans for the task of rocket strikes on Ukrainian forces in specific facilities in Odessa and Nikolaev on March 3, an attack, which, according to US special services, should be aimed at destroying the storage space of drones, guns of air defense and air defense and air defense guns Liquidation of the Ukrainian military.

It remains unknown whether the United States has allowed Ukraine to take measures to mitigate the damage caused by attacks. Another entry discusses the February Report, widespread in Russia's national defense management on the "reduction of combat capability" of the Russian forces in eastern Ukraine. According to analysts, some documents were re -published on other social media platforms, including 4chan, anonymous ads. On Saturday, many documents were still available on Twitter.

Although the social media platform could take steps to remove material in the past, in accordance with the rules prohibiting the distribution of broken materials. Ilon Musk, Twitter owner, said Twitter on Thursday, April 6, that he will not remove the material. Recall that on April 7, a new portion of secret documents was published on the network, which refers to the secrets of US national security.
