Rep. Mac Thornberry, R-Texas, said Thursday he has ordered an inquiry into whether anyone on the House Armed Services Committee leaked details of the Pentagon’s investigation into soldier deaths in Niger.

Thornberry, who is the committee chairman, said the leak of the Niger report details before families of the soldiers could be briefed was an “unconscionable breach of faith” and was urging other House chairmen to pursue similar inquiries.
