An ongoing review is being carried out to determine the accuracy of reports that Russia offered bounty payments to Taliban-linked terrorists to kill American and Coalition troops in Afghanistan, two House Republicans said Monday after a classified briefing with White House officials.
The classified briefing came from administration officials including John Ratcliffe, the Director of National Intelligence; Robert O'Brien, the White House National Security Adviser; and Mark Meadows, the White House Chief of Staff, according to Reps. Michael McCaul (R-Texas) and Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) in a statement.
