Syria Files

On 5 July 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing what it called the Syria Files, a collection of more than two million emails from Syrian political figures and ministries and from companies including Finmeccanica[1][2] and Brown Lloyd James[3][4] dating from August 2006 to March 2012.[5] The emails were hacked by Anonymous before being given to WikiLeaks for release.[6]

The Syria Files mainly embarrassed the U.S. and Assad and highlighted the ties between the two, which WikiLeaks saw as proof of Western hypocrisy.[7][8] WikiLeaks was criticised in 2016 for allegedly excluding an email about a money transfer to Russia.[9]
