The US Department of State has published about 3,000 pages of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s e-mails.

WASHINGTON (Sputnik) — The US Department of State has published about 3,000 pages of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s e-mails related to the 2012 terrorist attacks in Benghazi, Libya, according to the State Department’s website.

US State Department to Release 55,000 Pages of Hillary Clinton's E-Mails
Earlier on Tuesday, State Department spokesperson John Kirby announced the release of the additional 3,000 pages from Clinton’s e-mail account would be made available at 9:00 p.m. on the same day.

The timing of the State Department's plan to release about 3,000 pages of Clinton's e-mails is not an effort to minimize media coverage but the result of the complexity of preparing records for public release to meet a court-imposed deadline, a State Department official said.

After a request from the State Department in October 2014, Clinton returned in December about 30,000 printed e-mails from her personal e-mail account.
