Many of the documents had been released previously but now have fewer redactions or none at all, researchers said. Many were scrambling to find out what new information had been revealed.
With the release, more than 97 percent of the documents in the JFK Assassination Records Collection are now available. President of the United States, Joe Biden said in a memo Thursday that all information in the documents regarding the assassination should be disclosed unless there are very compelling reasons not to.
"The profound national tragedy of President Kennedy's assassination continues to resonate in American history and in the memories of so many Americans who lived that terrible day," President Biden wrote in the memo.
As known John F Kennedy was shot and killed while riding in his motorcade through Dallas, Texas on 22 November 1963, at the age of 46.
