Acting Inspector General Steven Stebbins wrote a letter to Hegseth Thursday, April 3, reported by The Associated Press, saying the goal of this investigation will be to determine if Hegseth and other Pentagon personnel complied with protocol while using the commercial messaging app.

According to the letter, the investigation will also assess whether Hegseth complied with classification and records retention requirements.

The review will take place in both Washington, D.C., and at the U.S. Central Command headquarters in Tampa, Florida.
