Secret documents that provide details of US and NATO plans to help prepare Ukraine for a spring offensive against Russia have spilled onto social media platforms, the New York Times reported.
The Pentagon said on Thursday it is assessing the apparent security breach.
“We are aware of the reports of social media posts, and the department is reviewing the matter,” Deputy Press Secretary Sabrina Singh said.
The documents were spread on Twitter and Telegram, and reportedly contain charts and details about weapons deliveries, battalion strengths and other sensitive information, the Times said.

The Biden administration is investigating a leak of classified documents that allegedly detail US and NATO plans for the Ukrainian military ahead of its counteroffensive this spring against Russian forces, The New York Times reported citing senior officials.
The report said on Thursday that the documents were leaked on Twitter and Telegram and represent a significant breach of US intelligence.
The documents reportedly contain information of anticipated weapons deliveries, US estimates of Ukrainians and Russians killed in the conflict, and force strength estimates, but no specific battle plans.
The documents are from March 1 and depict US and Ukrainian perspectives of what is needed for the counteroffensive, but there were no details about when or where Kiev would launch its operation, according to the report.
