"Drained into a gaming chat": The Pentagon's data is involved in the "weapon lover" - WP

However, one of the participants had access to the secret documents of the Pentagon and from 2022 began to share them with Internet friends. The history of Pentagon's data was told by the Washington Post. Among the group participants were some whom the interlocutor of journalists call OG. This man claimed that the secrets of the government knows.

Initially, he published literal transcripts of secret intelligence documents, which he brought from work "on a military base", later began to publish their pictures. According to the media, he told friends on chat, who spent part of the day in the premises that were protected and where electronic devices were banned. "He is a smart person. Of course, he knew what he did when he published these documents. These were not random sources of any kind," the familiar OG said to the media.

It is about Secretary reports on the location and movement of high -ranking political leaders and tactical renewal of military forces, geopolitical analysis, as well as an analysis of attempts by foreign governments to intervene in elections, explained in the media. Two members of the group confessed to journalists who knew the real name, place of work and place of residence of OG, but refused to share this information.

One of the interlocutors said OG spent almost an hour every day to write long reports with abstracts and explanations, because their content was not clear to ordinary citizens. Later, to save his own time, OG began to take photos of real documents, some of them, according to the group participant, contained detailed schemes of hostilities in Ukraine and classified satellite images of rocket strikes of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation on Ukrainian electrical objects.

OG has been shared from the end of 2022. "OG has regularly downloaded the US Secret Page, offering a window to how deeply American intelligence has entered the Russian army," The Washington Post wrote. According to a friend, OG was not hostile to the US government and insisted that no country was working in the interests of any country. However, OG condemned law enforcement agencies and US intelligence for concealing information from citizens.

The man argued that the government knew about the shooting that led to the death of a dozen people, but law enforcement officers allowed it to happen to later argue for an increase in funding. The channel that published secret data was called "Bear Against Pigs", and it had about 25 active participants. According to one of them, about half was abroad, most of them were interested in people from post -Soviet countries.

During the winter, OG downloaded secret documents to the server, but on February 28, another teenage user brought them from a private group to another chat in Discord. Some of the "fused" data concerned Ukraine's defense capability. According to journalists, from there the other person on March 4 made information dedicated to the popular video game of the Chat "Minecraft Earth Map".

A dozen secret documents became accessible to thousands of platform users, and in early April they were published on Russian and Ukrainian pages on social networks. "One image showing the renewal of Ukraine on March 1 was grossly fake to overestimate the number of Ukrainian losses and reduce the number of losses from the Russian side," The Washington Post reported.

Shortly before the spread of history with the publication in the media in the chat appeared "in a frantic state" OG and prayed to God so that "something did not happen", one of the participants told. "He is fully aware of what is happening and what the consequences can be. He is simply not sure how to solve this situation . . . He seems to be very upset by this," the interlocutor told reporters.

OG advised Internet junctions to "keep quiet" and delete information that concerns it, including a copy of the documents published in the chat. Community participants in the leakage of secret data tend not to blame their acquaintances, but a teenager who has taken pictures to another page. The interlocutor of the media workers refused to disclose OG data until it is detained or he would escape from the country.

He reported that law enforcement officers did not contact him, and OG's assistance explained friendship. "I think I can delay me over time . . . I think there could be a short investigation where I knew this guy and they will try something to pull out in me. They can try to threaten me with a prison term if I do not reveal their identity", " - said the participant of the chat to journalists.
