LONDON - The secret-spilling group WikiLeaks said Thursday it was in
the process of publishing material from 2.4 million Syrian emails - many
of which it said came from official government accounts.
WikiLeaks' Sarah Harrison told journalists at London's Frontline Club that the emails reveal interactions between the Syrian government and Western companies, although she declined to go into much further detail.
Harrison quoted WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange as saying that "the material is embarrassing to Syria, but it is also embarrassing to Syria's external opponents."
WikiLeaks posted only a handful of the documents to its website Thursday, but the disclosure - whose source WikiLeaks has not made clear - wouldn't be the first major leak of Syrian emails.
