U.S. intelligence officials have agreed to meet with the House Intelligence Committee, apparently ending a standoff over a still-mysterious whistleblower’s report.

The agreement was announced on Wednesday evening, hours before the Washington Post reported, citing unnamed sources, that the complaint involved communications between President Donald Trump and a foreign leader. The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the Post report. Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff also did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
