Pentagon linguist pleads guilty to exposing U.S. intelligence sources to Hezbollah

A linguist for the Department of Defense pleaded guilty on Friday to passing classified information about U.S. human intelligence sources to an individual with ties to Hezbollah, a Lebanese terrorist organization, the Department of Justice said. Mariam Taha Thompson began sending the information after the U.S. killed Qassem Soleimani, a top Iranian military commander, in an airstrike in early 2020, according to court documents. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/pentagon-linguist-mariam-taha-thompson-pleads-guilty/
