Officials are assessing “the authenticity of documents that have been circulating on social media and which allegedly contain confidential and highly classified material,” she said. As Singh clarified, experts are trying to establish how this leak will affect US national security, as well as US allies and partners. “The Department of Defense’s highest priority is to protect our country and our national security. We have referred this matter to the Department of Justice, which has opened a criminal investigation,” the Pentagon’s deputy spokeswoman said.
Earlier, dozens of documents were found on social networks containing information on the supply of arms to Ukraine, the preparation of the Ukrainian armed forces for a counter-offensive, data on American allies like Israel and the South Korea. The latter has already declared that she intended to receive comments from Washington on what happened during President Yun Sok Yol’s visit to the United States. And the opposition in South Korea has called the US eavesdropping a violation of sovereignty. However, this is unlikely to spoil relations between the two countries. The facts of the US wiretap of its allies have been made public before, but the scandals quickly died down.

Also worth noting is the Reuters post, which says the documents may be fake.
