A recently leaked document signed by Israeli Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman reveals information about the military capabilities and operational methods of the Defense Forces,HaaretzThe news was posted online for a short time before being taken down, but anyone could see it.

The leak of these documents is an extremely serious breach of information security. "This is a serious information security breach and will be investigated," the Israeli forces spokesman's office said.

At least two entries in the document mention the names of systems the Israel Defense Forces keep secret. At least one of the entries is so secret that its name cannot be mentioned in phone calls, due to its sensitive nature and concerns that any information about it will be leaked, the Israel Defense Forces spokesman's office said.

The second system exposed, used by a military unit in the operation, is considered top secret. Making it public could reveal the force's capabilities.
