A growing environmental controversy is unfolding in Maryland after newly released documents revealed that a massive jet fuel leak at a key US military base went undisclosed for months, raising accusations that officials under Donald Trump's Defence Department failed to properly report the incident.
The leak, which occurred at Joint Base Andrews, the home of Air Force One, has sparked an investigation into whether federal authorities deliberately withheld critical information from state regulators. The delay in disclosure has intensified concerns about transparency, environmental safety and accountability at one of the nation's most sensitive military installations.
