An unnamed “senior aide”
to then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton
left classified information unsecured and unattended
in a hotel room during a 2010 trip to China,
one of several overseas lapses by Clinton’s inner circle,
Fox News has learned.

Confirmation of the alarming violation comes as Clinton herself is under a renewed FBI probe for mishandling sensitive information on a private server and
her longtime senior aide, Huma Abedin, also faces scrutiny as part of the investigation.

It was not known which of Clinton’s aides left the information exposed.

“In May 2010,
Secretary Clinton was on official travel in Beijing, China,
accompanied by senior staff. Upon Secretary Clinton’s departure,
a routine security sweep by Diplomatic Security agents identified classified documents in a staff member’s suite,” State Department spokesman John Kirby told Fox News in a statement,
issued several weeks after a Freedom of Information Act request was filed with the agency.

Diplomatic Security, which protects the Secretary of State in the U.S. and abroad, as well as high-ranking foreign dignitaries and officials visiting the United States, wrote up the incident on a Form 117,
while the Marine Security Guards filed a separate formal report, the source said.

The information came to light when the FBI was investigating
whether Clinton or her staff
violated the US Espionage Act by mishandling classified and top secret information.

House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes, R-Calif.,
citing a whistleblower who separately came to him with an allegation
it was Clinton who left the material out,
wrote to the FBI director on Monday asking for more information.
