A conversation between German officers was leaked in Germany. This happened because one of the call participants used the hotel's mobile or wireless network.
Russian BILD writes about this with reference to German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius.
According to him, the department’s communication systems were not broken, the leak occurred precisely as a result of a private error.
“Not all participants followed the secure connection procedure. A participant's data was reportedly leaked in Singapore. The officer connected to a secret Bundeswehr call due to an 'open connection,'” said Boris Pistorius.< /p>
Brigadier General Frank Graefe was in Singapore on February 19 to attend an aviation exhibition. In a telephone conversation published by Russian propaganda, Air Force Commander Ingo Gerharz and Brigadier General Frank Graefe spoke with two other Bundeswehr officers.
The call did not use an encrypted line, but Webex video conferencing software. Recording duration is 38 minutes. Germany's military counterintelligence service is conducting an investigation. The Minister initiated a preliminary disciplinary investigation against the participants in the conversation.
Recall that in Germany they demand to investigate the leak of information obtained by Russian propagandists.
