Sensitive information about Iran and China is among the classified documents the FBI seized from Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate, The Washington Post reports.

The anonymous experts warned that sharing the classified information could threaten the United States' methods for gathering intelligence and that exposing the data could also open the door for other countries to retaliate against the U.S. for its covert operations.
