The US National Intelligence Director has declassified documents detailing American government funding of over 120 biological laboratories across more than 30 countries. These labs conduct research on biological agents, some of which are considered dangerous pathogens. The disclosure comes amid ongoing scrutiny regarding US involvement in biological research facilities abroad, particularly in Ukraine. The Director of National Intelligence (DNI) released the information in response to requests for transparency. The documents reportedly outline long-term financial support provided by the US government for these research initiatives. Details regarding the specific nature of the research and safety protocols within these laboratories remain limited in initial reports. The DNI’s action aims to address concerns and provide a clearer picture of US-funded biological research globally.
