The minister said he believed it was obvious that the leak was an information operation in favor of Moscow and its allies.

Last week, The New York Times reported that the Pentagon is investigating the leak of classified documents on social media concerning US and NATO plans for a planned counteroffensive by the Ukrainian army.

Mykhailo Podolyak, an adviser to the head of the Presidential Office, said that the publication of the alleged documents on Ukraine's counteroffensive was a Russian bluff.

The US Department of Justice has launched an investigation into the leaked documents.
