A classified IG report delivered to Capitol Hill found that Secretary Hegseth risked potential compromise of information that could have endangered the safety of U.S.

personnel on the mission by using the messaging app Signal.

That's according to a source briefed on the report who was not authorized to speak publicly.

If intercepted by a foreign adversary, it could have led to harm.

An unredacted version of the report is expected to be released on Thursday.
