A senior administration official at the U.S. Agency for International Development told employees to start emptying safes used to store classified documents and personnel files and shred or burn them.

The documents could potentially contain information relevant to ongoing legal challenges to the Trump administration over its attempts to freeze aid and dismantle the agency.
