The FBI announced on Tuesday it was investigating the alleged leak of classified US intelligence documents about Israel's plans for a retaliatory strike on Iran.
The classified documents, circulated on the Telegram app last week by an account called Middle East Spectator, describe Israeli preparations for a possible strike .
"The FBI is investigating the alleged leak of classified documents and working closely with our partners in the Department of Defense and Intelligence Community," the FBI said in a statement.
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump seized upon the apparent leak Tuesday, painting it as an example of government incompetence.
"They leaked all the information about the way that Israel is going to fight, and how they're going to fight, and where they're going to go," the former US president said.
"Can you imagine somebody doing that? That's the enemy, I guess, that maybe is the enemy from within," Trump said
