House Democrats have announced they’ll hold the first public hearings next week in their impeachment inquiry of US President Donald Trump.

Three State Department officials will testify in hearings on Nov. 13 and Nov. 15, according to House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff. Schiff is leading the probe.

Schiff tweeted that top Ukraine diplomat William Taylor, career department official George Kent and former US ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch will testify. Yovanovitch was ousted in May at Trump’s direction.
