Hondurasgate: Leaked recordings allege US-Israeli destabilisation plot in Latin America A series of recordings leaked by investigative site Hondurasgate and Spanish news platform Canal Red have revealed US and Israeli initiatives aimed at advancing interests in Honduras and destabilising left-leaning governments in Latin America. The investigation, led by anonymous Honduran journalists, includes three instalments of 37 leaked WhatsApp, Signal and Telegram voice notes that Hondurasgate says were authenticated through forensic analysis.
