The documents, some marked as top-secret, appear to reveal information about U.S. allies, including South Korea and Israel.
They also appear to include details about the condition of Ukraine's air-defense systems, crucial for the war against Russia.
The Justice Department is scrambling to find the source of what appears to be a major leak of U.S. intelligence documents. ABC News has reviewed more than 30 pages of the highly classified material posted online, containing what appears to be U.S. intelligence about the war in Ukraine, Russia, Iran's nuclear program, North Korea's missile program, China, and other countries."There is potential to damage the relationship with some of our allies because some of this information could have been gleaned if the U.S. was spying on senior leaders," Martinez said.
"When do you put this into a newspaper or a television broadcast, but we have reached a point where these things proliferated through telegram, Twitter," said Dan Lamonthe, The Washington Post.
