Ukraine's president and top security brass have discussed ways to prevent leaks of military information, Kyiv said, after secret documents detailing Western help for Ukraine reportedly ended up online.
that said documents about U.S. and NATO plans to build up the Ukrainian military had been leaked online.
Ukrainian presidential adviser Mykhailo Podolyak told Reuters earlier that the document leak looked like a Russian operation to sow doubts about a spring counter-offensive. "These are just standard elements of operational games by Russian intelligence. And nothing more," Podolyak said in a written statement.
"For example, one of the slides said 16,000 to 17,500 Russian soldiers had been killed while Ukraine had suffered as many as 71,500 troop deaths. The Pentagon and other analysts have estimated that Russia has suffered far more casualties, with closer to 200,000 killed and injured, while Ukraine has had more than 100,000 killed and injured," the Times reported.Ukraine does not disclose the scale of its losses and is very sensitive about the subject.
