Around 150 more of the emails that former US secretary of state Hillary Clinton kept on a private server were retroactively deemed classified, the State Department said Monday, August 31. The agency Clinton previously headed was set to release later Monday some 7,000 additional pages of the mails she surrendered to US officials earlier this year after coming under fire for operating the server. Clinton has been criticized for using a private server rather than an official government domain for all her emails during her time at the State Department. Critics say she put national security at risk by taking classified information out of secure government systems and onto an unauthorized network that could be preyed upon hackers. But Clinton insists none of the mails on the private server were formally marked “classified” or a higher designation such as “top secret.”
