Britain casts doubt on leaked reports about special forces in Ukraine

UK’s Ministry of Defense (MoD) has cast doubt on reports that UK special forces have operated in Ukraine after the allegations occurred from a leaked trove of highly sensitive US documents.

The Guardian and other media outlets said the leaked military and intelligence files suggest that dozens of British special forces personnel have been present in Ukraine so far this year. The classified US material, which has not been verified, was leaked and then circulated on social media.

The British Embassy in Kyiv said in June 2021 that UK and US special forces were holding joint training activity with their Ukrainian counterparts. But London has not revealed their continued presence inside the country since Russia’s invasion in February last year.

The widely reported leak of alleged classified US information has demonstrated a serious level of inaccuracy, the UK’s MoD said in a statement posted Wednesday on Twitter.

Top US diplomat Antony Blinken and defense chief Lloyd Austin spoke with their Ukrainian counterparts on Tuesday as the US seeks to reassure its allies following the leak.

The violation — which has sparked a criminal investigation by the Department of Justice — includes various classified information about Ukraine’s battle against invading Russian forces, as well as secret assessments of US allies.

Many of the documents are no longer available on the sites where they first appeared, and the United States is reportedly working to have them removed.
