This document, page 107 of a House Oversight record, details the logistics of Edward Snowden's escape from Hong Kong in June 2013. It describes how Wikileaks associate Sarah Harrison, under Julian Assange's direction, used tradecraft such as burner phones and decoy flight bookings (to Beijing and New Delhi) to evade US intelligence before securing a flight to Moscow. The text also analyzes the financial state of Wikileaks at the time and the diplomatic tension regarding extradition between the US, Hong Kong, and China.
