A member of the Massachusetts Air National Guard who disclosed a significant amount of classified military information and published it online, resulting in one of the most severe breaches of US national security in recent memory, has agreed to a 16-year prison term, as announced on Monday.

Jack Teixeira, who was 21 years old at the time of his apprehension in April 2023, faced allegations of misusing his security clearance by divulging top-secret Pentagon documents and circulating them on the social media and gaming platform Discord.

The leaked documents quickly spread across various channels, leading to widespread dissemination.

Among the highly sensitive materials he was accused of exposing were intricate intelligence evaluations concerning Russia’s incursion into Ukraine. These assessments provided detailed insights into various aspects of the invasion, including the logistics of equipment transfer and its intended usage upon delivery, as outlined in the indictment.
