The United States are conducting polygraph tests on approximately 50 military personnel as part of an investigation into leaks of classified information. The investigation was initiated after journalists revealed details about the reduction of the country's missile stockpiles.
American military authorities are seeking to identify those responsible for the revelations about the depletion of the military arsenal. The leaks allegedly exposed sensitive information about the United States' armament capacity.
The counterintelligence operation involves interrogations and polygraph tests on the selected military personnel. The Pentagon has not publicly commented on the specific details of the ongoing investigation.
The case occurs at a time of heightened concern about military information security in the United States, where leaks of classified documents have become a recurring issue in recent years.
