WASHINGTON (AP) — The State Department is expected to release roughly 7,000 pages of former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton’s emails later Monday, including about 150 that have been censored because they contain information that has now been deemed classified.
Department officials say the redacted information was classified in preparation for the public release of the emailsand was not identified as classified when Clinton sent or received them. All the censored information in the latest group of emails is classified at the “confidential” level, not at the higher “top secret” or compartmentalized, the officials said.
The State Department plans to post the documents to its website on Monday evening.
