JFK Assassination Files: Explosive New Documents Released!

2025-03-20 00:03:09.8

On Tuesday evening, approximately 2,200 files containing over 63,000 pages related to the 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy were released by the U.S. National Archives and Records Administration. This release follows President Trump's 2017 order to declassify remaining files, though some were withheld due to national security concerns. The majority of the over 6 million pages of records in the National Archives' collection had been previously released. While the Warren Commission concluded Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone, the release continues to fuel decades of conspiracy theories. Newly released documents offer details on Oswald's activities in Mexico City weeks before the assassination, including contacts with Soviet and Cuban embassies. The documents also shed light on the operations of intelligence services during the Cold War. The release of these files has reignited interest in the case and is expected to spur further research and analysis.
