The Pentagon have scrambled to discover the source of a leak that has seen top secret documents on the Ukraine war leaked on social media sites.
Although it's unclear why the documents are only now becoming public, more than a month after they were written, they provide a thorough description of the battlefield on that specific day.
The graphic also includes the Russian fatalities listed at 16,000–17,500. Although neither side provides total casualty counts, the Russian count is thought to be significantly higher.This leak is worrying for the Pentagon, but it is also yet to be seen how, or even if, such information will be used by people who now have access to it, like the Russian military. Thankfully, no war plans were included in the leaked documentation.
