Sub-Lt. Jeffrey Delisle has been charged and may face life imprisonment for allegedly spying and leaking defense information to Russian operatives.

The Canadian Press says the leaked information could include sensitive data on underwater “dead zones” where submarines can travel undetected.

Details of navy ship movements in the Arctic and the Middle East may have been leaked as well, along with weapons systems information.

The Wall Street Journal reports sources close to the case say the breach created serious conflict between the U.S. and Canada. The information allegedly delivered to the Russians was electronic communications and signals data collected between Canada and its allies.
