Susan Rice will testify before the House Intelligence Committee next month as part of its probe into Russia's election interference and possible collusion with the Trump campaign, according to a report Thursday.

Republicans have been interested in interviewing Rice, former President Barack Obama's national security adviser, ever since numerous news outlets reported that she sought the identities of people close to President Trump whose communications were captured after the election in surveillance of foreigners by U.S. spy agencies.

According to CNN, Rice will appear in a nonpublic session with the intelligence panel some time before Congress departs for its August recess.

"Ambassador Rice is cooperating with bipartisan Russia investigations conducted by the Intelligence Committees as she said she would," said Erin Pelton, a spokesperson for Rice, told CNN.

Some Republicans have alleged that Rice and the outgoing Obama administration unjustifiably unmasked — as the process of making identities known is called — and then leaked damaging conversations involving Trump's team.

Rice has denied wrongdoing, including leaking.

Rice has not yet answered questions directly from lawmakers and declined a request to appear before a Senate judiciary subcommittee in May.
