Gabbard says declassified biolab records validate concerns previously dismissed as misinformation

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard released declassified records showing U.S. funding of over 120 biological laboratories in more than 30 countries, including 40 in Ukraine. The documents detail research on pathogens like anthrax and Ebola, and U.S. taxpayer spending on lab construction. Critics argue the facilities were part of public health efforts, while Gabbard claims the public was not given a full picture of U.S.-backed biological research.
