US investigates leak on intelligence about Israel's Iran attack plans
Oct 20 (Reuters) -The United States is investigating the leak of a pair of highly classified intelligence documents describing Israel's preparations for a retaliatory strike on Iran, House Speaker Mike Johnson said on Sunday. 美国正在调查泄露的两份高度机密的情报文件,这些文件描述了以色列为报复性打击伊朗所做的准备,美国众议院议长迈克·约翰逊周日表示。The documents appear to have been prepared by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, describing U.S. interpretations of Israeli Air Force and Navy planning based on satellite imagery from Oct. 15-16.这些文件似乎是由美国国家地理空间情报局(NGA)准备的,描述了美国对以色列空军和海军根据10月15日至16日的卫星影像进行计划的解读。They began circulating last week on the Telegram messaging app. Israel has been planning a response to a ballistic-missile barrage carried out by Iran on Oct. 1, its second direct attack on Israel in six months. Israel has intensified its offensive in Gaza and Lebanon, days after the killing of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar.这些文件上周开始在Telegram消息应用程序上流传。以色列一直在计划对伊朗在10月1日发起的弹道导弹攻击做出回应,这是六个月内对以色列的第二次直接攻击。在哈马斯领导人叶海亚·辛瓦尔(Yahya Sinwar)被杀几天后,以色列加大了在加沙和黎巴嫩的攻势。Asked about the leak of the documents during an interview with CNN, Johnson, the U.S. House of Representatives' top lawmaker, said an "investigation (is) underway and I'll get a briefing on that in a couple of hours."在接受CNN采访时,约翰逊表示,关于文件泄露的“调查正在进行中,我将在几个小时内得到简报”。"...We are following it closely," Johnson added.“……我们正在密切关注,”约翰逊补充道。The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The Pentagon said it was looking into the leak reports.国家地理空间情报局和国家情报局办公室没有立即回应置评请求。五角大楼表示正在调查泄露的报告。The New York Times reported that officials acknowledged privately that the documents were authentic, but that they likely only represent a portion of information the U.S. has on its close ally's planning.《纽约时报》报道,美国官员们私下承认这些文件是可信的,但这可能仅代表美国对其密切盟友计划的部分信息。The first document is titled: "Israel: Air Force Continues Preparations for Strike on Iran and Conducts a Second Large-Force Employment Exercise." It describes activities including ballistic and air-to-surface missile handling.第一份文件的标题为:“以色列:空军继续为对伊朗的打击做准备并进行第二次大规模部队演习。”该文件描述了包括弹道导弹和空对地导弹处理在内的活动。The second is titled: "Israel: Defense Forces Continue Key Munitions Preparations and Covert UAV Activity Almost Certainly for a Strike on Iran." UAVs are also known as drones.第二份文件的标题为:“以色列:国防军继续进行关键弹药准备和几乎肯定是针对伊朗的秘密无人机活动。”无人机也称为无人飞行器。U.S. President Joe Biden, responding to questions from reporters, said last week he had a good understanding of when and how Israel would attack Iran. But he also said he sees an opportunity to end the two enemies' back-and-forth strikes.美国总统乔·拜登在回应记者提问时表示,上周他对以色列何时以及如何袭击伊朗有很好的了解。但他也表示,他认为有机会结束这两个敌人之间的反复袭击。
