This is normal for developing stories. They’re reporting things which they’ve heard from sources which they consider to be reliable, are informing readers of the limits of what they know, and will almost certainly publish additional articles when more information becomes available.

What do you want? The design specification and implementation? By what seems to be your standard, every newspaper would be empty. Which would be very convenient to some people! For instance, Elon Musk and DOGE.
Reuters knows what their sources are telling them, and they're reporting that. They're doing a fine job.

So, this article is a "we don't actually know" and a "they could be doing something but, but again we don't know".
