A Telegram account with ties to the Tehran regime posted highly classified US intelligence about Israel’s plans for retaliation against Iran on Friday. The Middle East Spectator included a report by the Department “detailing operations carried out in recent days at several Israeli air force bases, including the transfer of advanced munitions that the report said were intended for attacks on Iran.” According to CNN, one person in the intelligence community confirmed the authenticity of the documents, thereby raising the level of seriousness of the breach.

This is how Middle East Spectator describes the sequence of events, keeping in mind that this is a regime-owned account:
Middle East Spectator is an open-source news aggregator. We are independent journalists, and are not tied to any government entity or organization.
On Friday morning at approximately 01:15 AM Tehran time, one of our acquaintances received, through an anonymous source on Telegram who refused to identify himself, two highly classified U.S. intelligence documents, regarding preparations by the Zionist regime for an attack on the Islamic Republic of Iran.
We have no connection to the original leaker, and we are not aware of his identity. We also have no knowledge of the alleged authenticity of the documents.
Furthermore, we assumed that the documents had been floating around elsewhere on Telegram, making them a part of the public domain.
We reject attempts by various Zionist and American media outlets to intimidate the reporters of Middle East Spectator, who are exercising their full and inalienable right of press freedom. Free Palestine.
The information was from one of the most compartmented areas, the so-called Five Eyes—Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom. This information was not shared with NATO or with regional allies. The Biden regime is trying to downplay the significance but is not doing a great job: Another US official said, “These two documents are bad, but not horrible. The concern is if there are more.”
Relations between Netanyahu and the White House are already tenuous, with Israel holding back on sharing its plans with Washington for fear that they will be leaked to Iran by Iran-friendly and Israel-hostile staffers.
Both the Obama and Biden administrations have shown such deference to Iran that many suspect they were seeded with Iranian agents or sympathizers.

Obama’s deputy national security adviser and failed young adult novelist, Ben Rhodes, was denied a security clearance for nearly a year over issues that have never been fully explained but were rumored to center around his relationship with the Iranian government.
Odds are that if Tehran leaked these documents, they would be a sign that a) Tehran has a lot more intelligence on Isrrael’s plans, b) they are leaking it to try to throw off Israel’s planning cycle, and c) we have a highly placed Iranian mole somewhere in the Intelligence Community.
