The hunt for Monica Elfriede Witt has intensified as federal authorities refocus on one of the most significant counterintelligence breaches in recent American history. A former US Air Force officer with high-level security clearances, Witt allegedly defected to Iran and handed over classified national defence secrets to a foreign adversary.
Her disappearance and subsequent alignment with Tehran have triggered a global search that remains active years after her initial flight. Today, the FBI is raising the stakes, offering a hefty reward to anyone who can provide information that leads to her apprehension.
