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 scoop”.

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 clear whether there is any connection between the anonymous phone call mentioned above 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.

US President Donald Trump on October 26 released more than 2,800 classified documents related to the assassination of former President John Kennedy in 1963, while still holding back a portion of the documents for further review and evaluation.

He directed that the remaining documents be reviewed and evaluated 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 programs and movies have exploited the hypothesis that Kennedy's assassination was a complex conspiracy. To this day, the case remains an unsolved mystery.
