All of these documents apparently come from the U.S. State Department's cache of reports, Reuters reports. In the face of a large amount of information of this caliber, surprising revelations such as those that have marked the previous WikiLeaks leaks have not yet been made clear. There is still a need for media and researchers to dive into the new content.
"We will have more than 100,000 cables from U.S. embassies around the world by the end of the day," WikiLeaks said in a tweet Thursday. The Twitter account is theoretically controlled by Julian Assange, pending a court decision on his extradition, which has been postponed for the time being.
This new revelation comes just days after the former WikiLeaks spokesman deleted 3,500 documents because the organization could not ensure the protection of the sources, just a week after it launched its new leak website OpenLeaks.
