The White House has said a source who leaked intelligence suggesting that U.S. military strikes on Iranian nuclear sites were not effective should be jailed.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said the FBI was examining the leak, published by CNN and The New York Times, which cast doubt on the Trump administration’s statement that Saturday’s strikes had “obliterated” Iran’s nuclear program.
Leavitt told reporters it was “disgusting” that the news outlets were “disparaging” both Trump and U.S. personnel who conducted the operation.
When asked what should happen to the source of the leak, Leavitt replied that they “should go to jail.”
