The JFK Records Act, a public law passed by the United States Congress in 1992, established that all existing documents related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy shall be made public by October 2017. Almost 25 years later, on July 24, 2017, the National Archives began the process of releasing the documents.

The first batch released consisted of 441 FBI and CIA records which were withheld in full and 3,369 documents previously released with portions redacted. These included 17 audio files of interviews of Yuri Nosenko, a KGB officer who claimed to have been the officer in charge of the KGB file on Lee Harvey Oswald during Oswald’s time in the Soviet Union and who also defected to the U.S. in January 1964.

On October 27, U.S. President Donald Trump tweeted about the release of 2,891 more documents. These included details about proposals to assassinate Congolese leader Patrice Lumumba, Indonesian president Sukarno, and Cuban leader Fidel Castro through Operation Mongoose. These documents were the last ones required for release by law, while the remaining classified files will only be analyzed for redactions.
