Saudi Arabia warns citizens to not share "faked" documents

Saudi Arabia on Saturday urged its citizens not to distribute "documents that might be faked" in an apparent response to WikiLeaks' publication on Friday of more than 60,000 documents it says are secret Saudi diplomatic communications.

 

The statement, made by the Foreign Ministry on its Twitter account, did not directly deny the documents' authenticity.

 

The released documents, which WikiLeaks said were embassy communications, emails between diplomats and reports from other state bodies, include discussions of Saudi Arabia's position regarding regional issues and efforts to influence media.

 

Reuters was not able to independently verify the authenticity of the released documents.
