According to information recorded in secret documents related to the assassination of former US President John Kennedy recently released by the US government, on November 22, 1963, an anonymous person called the editorial office of the British news agency Cambridge News.
A Cambridge News reporter, he received the call at 18:05 GMT on 22 November 1963. The person on the other end of the line suggested he call the US Embassy in London for “a sensational story”.
The reporter later reported the contents of the phone call to local authorities and the British security agency MI-5. The call was determined to have occurred just 25 minutes before the assassination of US President John Kennedy.
On November 22, 1963, President Kennedy was shot from behind while riding in a limousine with his wife and a security motorcade in Dallas, Texas. The suspect was later identified as a man named Lee Harvey Oswald.
However, it is not yet clear whether there is any connection between the anonymous phone call and the assassination of US President Kennedy. MI-5 believes that at that time, there were also many anonymous phone calls across the UK related to the scandal that shook British politics at that time of a member of parliament named Stephen Ward.
On October 26, US President Donald Trump released more than 2,800 classified documents related to the assassination of former President John Kennedy in 1963, while holding back some documents for further review and evaluation.
He ordered a further review and assessment of the remaining documents within 180 days before deciding whether to release them for national security reasons.
Former US President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas in 1963. The case has consumed a lot of public ink with many conspiracy theories. Thousands of books, articles, television shows and movies have explored the theory that Kennedy's assassination was a complex conspiracy. To this day, the case remains an unsolved mystery.
