Finland's Ministry of Defense accidentally revealed information it had previously classified, according to Yle.
The document in question was obtained by Yle through a request. Some of the information had been redacted, but it could be easily reconstructed.
According to the ministry, a human error occurred while processing the document, which should not have happened. The declassified information concerned defense procurements related to budget planning.
Yle did not disclose the content of the redacted phrase, noting that the information is not of significant public interest.
The ministry emphasized that it is taking the mistake seriously.
Earlier this year, Ukraine declassified data on critical mineral reserves. Meanwhile, the CIA released a previously classified report on a possible meeting between Soviet military personnel and UFOs, including an alleged alien attack on soldiers.
