U.S. military officials tested after leak
Reports have been published indicating that the U.S. Department of Defense (the Pentagon) conducted lie detection tests on approximately 50 high-ranking military officials, including members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and personnel involved in planning and advisory roles. The purpose was to identify the source of leaks concerning ammunition shortages in the context of the war with Iran. These measures come after media reports claimed that the United States had limited the use of missiles, especially interceptors, due to declining stockpiles—a claim that the Trump administration denied, asserting that it possessed large quantities of munitions. The Department of Defense confirmed that investigations are still ongoing and that classified information security is top secret. It also stated that polygraph testing remains a rare measure used extensively in investigations into leaks, aimed at safeguarding national security.
