US federal worker indicted in classified documents leaks about Israel’s earlier plans to strike Iran

WASHINGTON (AP) — A man who worked for the U.S. government has been charged with leaking classified information assessing Israel’s earlier plans to attack Iran, according to documents filed Wednesday.

The man, identified as Asif William Rahman, was arrested by the FBI this week in Cambodia and was scheduled to make his first court appearance in Guam.

It was not immediately clear if he had an attorney or which federal agency employed him.

The New York Times was the first to report his arrest.
