- 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 U.S.-funded research on pathogens like anthrax and Ebola, as well as construction projects in Ukrainian labs. Critics previously accused Gabbard of spreading Russian narratives, while supporters argue the release validates concerns about oversight of these facilities.
