High-Ranking Officials Tested Amid Sensitive Information Breaches
The US military has conducted polygraph tests on several dozen high-ranking officials, including those from US Central Command, as part of an investigation into leaks of sensitive information about weapons stockpiles. The tests were administered earlier this summer, and no one failed the questions meant to determine if they had leaked information to the media. The investigation is part of a broader effort to prevent leaks and protect national security, according to sources briefed on the matter, as reported by CBS News.
