New JFK assassination files reveal details on Lee Harvey Oswald’s connection to Soviets: Latest updates

New details about Lee Harvey Oswald’s connections to the Soviet Union were revealed in a tranche of declassified documents released by the Trump administration concerning the 1963 assassination of former President John F. Kennedy.

About 2,200 files – consisting of approximately 63,000 pages – were posted in two batches by the U.S. National Archives and Records Administration on Tuesday evening. It came after President Donald Trump teased the release on Monday while visiting the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts and asserted that the government would not redact “anything” – stating about 80,000 pages would be made public.
