International whistle-blower website WikiLeaks announced on Monday the release of 1.7 million confidential, or formerly confidential, US diplomatic and intelligence records dated from 1973 to 1976.
The documents, most of which are contained in the US National Archives but are difficult to obtain, include revelations over US support of South American and European dictators, and provide details on the 1973 October War, among other topics relating to the time period.
The new collection, dubbed the “Kissinger Cables” after then-US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, is the largest group of documents from the WikiLeaks Public Library of US Diplomacy database, which now contains about 2 million formerly classified documents.

“The collection covers US involvements in, and diplomatic or intelligence reporting on, every country on Earth. It is the single most significant body of geopolitical material ever published,” WikiLeaks chief Julian Assange said in a statement.
WikiLeaks is partnering with Al-Akhbar and over a dozen other media organizations around the world to report on the documents.
