A ex-CIA official has pleaded guilty to leaking top secret US intelligence documents on a planned Israeli attack on Iran.

The 34-year-old worked for the CIA since 2016 and held a top secret security clearance.

Rahman sent two top secret documents to "multiple individuals he knew were not entitled to receive them," according to the court filing.
