Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin vowed on April 11 to “investigate and turn over every rock” to find who was behind the leaking of Pentagon documents.

“We take this very seriously and we will continue to investigate and turn over every rock until we find the source of this and the extent of it,” he said during a press conference at the State Department following a meeting with Secretary of State Antony Blinken, Philippine Secretary of Foreign Affairs Enrique Manalo, and Philippine Officer in Charge of the Department of National Defense Carlito Galvez.
