A court in Georgia investigating Donald Trump over the 2020 election has confirmed 10 indictments.
The precise contents of the indictment have not yet been revealed.
The court in Atlanta sat beyond usual working hours as a grand jury decided whether or not to charge the former president.

He denies the claims and says they are politically motivated.
Trump’s other legal troubles include allegations he kept national security documents at his Florida home when he left office.
The ex-president has again pleaded not guilty.
