WASHINGTON: Dozens of emails that traversed Hillary Clinton’s private, unsecure home server contain national security information are now deemed too sensitive to make public, according to the latest batch of records released on Friday.

In 2,206 pages of emails, the government censored passages to protect national security at least 64 times in 37 messages. Clinton has said she never sent classified information from her private email server, which The Associated Press was first to identify as operating in her home in New York.

The Friday release brings the volume of emails publicly released by the State Department to roughly 12 per cent of the 55,000 pages Clinton had turned over to department lawyers earlier this year.
