The United States Congress has released a damning report listing serious failings by all of the country's main intelligence agencies before last September's terror attacks.
The agencies include the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and the National Security Agency (NSA).
The document cites a number of lapses, including poor communications, poor resource allocation, and the CIA's failure to follow a congressional directive.
The report was released by the Senate and House of Representatives Intelligence panels, which has been investigating the agencies' roles in a series of closed-door hearings in recent weeks.
